[E] The misfits are [D] cult rock and roll, [A] worshipped by a few but [E] ignored on the whole.
Meet the people!
There's [D] a film cult classic, [A] it's basically unknown but [E] some say it's fantastic.
Most women that I meet [D] seem totally unfazed,
[A] till sometimes there's somebody who [E] seems totally amazed.
I might not be in magazines [D] as a heartthrob [A] face,
but in a few devoted hearts I've [E] found a strong fan base.
I'm a cult boyfriend, [D] not a mainstream show,
[A] I'm lonely or I'm worshipped [E] by a lady in the know.
And you're a cult boyfriend, [D] life is always intense.
[A] They love me or they hate me, [E] no one's on the fence.
Zerogest is a [D] cult comic book series,
[A] it's got fans but it's never [E] found in movies or in theories.
WFMU's [D] a cult radio station,
[A] always tuned to by a few [E] devoted fans around the nation.
For every time I couldn't [D] get a second date or even first,
[A] why does one think I'm the best [E] when all the rest think I'm the worst?
All of those times [D] no one at all wanted to know.
[A] If I'm really all that [E] awesome, wouldn't more people think so?
I guess cult boyfriend [D] is the term for me.
[A] It's always been quality, [E] not quantity.
A cult boyfriend's like a [D] record in a bargain bin,
[A] no one knows it's worth [E] till a collector comes in.
[D]
[A] [E] [D]
[A] [E] Hmm, who are [D] some cult literary names I [A] can honor?
Maybe J.G. [E] Ballard or Flannery O'Connor.
Haggis and [D] Fugu, that's like food for [A] cult eaters.
Jim Jones, [E] Charles Mams and Father Yode, they're cult leaders.
Anyway, [D] the point being, do I have to be [A] magical?
Can't we date a few [E] months, then move on normal and casual?
Suicidally [D] alone and then totally [A] smothered,
it's so much pressure when you go from one [E] extreme to the other.
I guess cult [D] boyfriend is the term for [A] me.
It's always been [E] quality, not quantity.

[D]
[A] [E] [D]
[A] [E] And this song probably ain't gonna go very far beyond [A] an open mic.
It's guaranteed, though, two [E] or three people are really gonna like it.
