They said he's busy, hold the line, please.
Call me crazy, I thought maybe he could mind read.
Who does the blind lead?
Show me his sign, please.
If everything is made in China, are we Chinese?
And why do haters separate us like we Siamese?
Technology turning the planet into zombie.
Everybody all in everybody's dirty laundry.
Acid rain, earthquakes, hurricane, tsunami.
Terrorist crime sprees, assaults and robberies.
Cops yelling, stop, freeze, shoot them before we try to leave.
Air quality so foul, I gotta try to breathe.
Endangered species, then we running [Dm] out of trees.
If I could hold the world in the [Ab] palm of these hands,
I would probably do away with these [Cm] anomalies.
Everybody checking for the new award nominees.
Wars and atrocities, look at all the poverty.
Ignoring the prophecies, more beef and broccoli.
Corporate monopoly, weak world economy.
Stock market toppling, mad marijuana, oxycontin and klonopin.
Everybody [Dm] out of it.

Yeah, it's still me, one of your biggest fans.
I get off work, right back to work again.
I probably need to go ahead and have my head exam.
Look how they got me on the death jam payment plan.
Well, I'm in the world of entertainment and trying to keep it singing, man.
Same for the paying [Dm] fans.
If I don't make it through the night, it's like [Abm] changing plans.
Harp strings, angel wings and praying [Cm] hands.
Lord, forgive me for my [C] shortcomings.
For going on tour and ignoring the court [Cm] summons.
All I'm trying to do is live life to the fullest.
They sent my daddy to you in a barrage of bullets.
Why is the world ugly when you made it in your image?
And why is living life such a fight to the finish?
For this high percentage when the sky's the limit.
[C] A second is a minute, every hour's infinite.
