_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ [Cm] Global warming's upon us.

Especially in one particular horrible place.
There's a place between heaven and hell.
[Ab] Don't need a map, just follow the smell.
[Eb] A place filled with [Bb] filthy air.
A [Eb] place full of dark despair.

A [C] place called New Jersey.
_ _ [Ab] New Jersey. _
_ [G] _ _ [F] _ Jersey, the garden [C] state.
_ _ There's a neck called [Cm] the 13-D.
[Ab] Right off the trump pot where it smells just like [Eb] pee.
An exit [Bb] no one dares get [Eb] on.
An exit [Bb] where the children cough.
An exit [Cm] called _ Dromerville.

Dromerville.
[F] If the pollution [G] doesn't get ya,
[Cm] Jerome will. _
_ [Fm] Who will [Cm] save New Jersey
[Fm] from dying [Cm] for some air?
[Fm] There's no hope [Cm] in New Jersey, [G] Lord.
Does anybody care?
Lord, does anybody care?
[Cm] Ladies and gentlemen, the story that we're about [C] to tell you is so disturbing.
We have stationed a registered nurse outside in the lobby.
She is armed with a tranquilizer dart gun for those needing sedation.
She also has Xanax and Vicodin.
She got off the internet.
And please, for the love of God, do not turn off your cell phone.
You're probably gonna wanna call your mama.
[Fm] There's no hope [Cm] in New Jersey.
[Fm] We're hanging [Cm] by a thread.
[Fm] We're choking [Cm] in New Jersey.
[G] We might as well be dead.

[Fm] We need a [Cm] savvy savior. [G] But who?
Who?

I [C] will save New Jersey.
I'm Melvin Fur [F]-the-Fur.
[C] I'm here for you, New [F] Jersey.
On that, you have [G] my word.
[C] There must be [F] a solution
[C] to end this damn [F] pollution.
[C] It's time to start [F] a global [G] _
revolution.
_ [C] Sister, look at what has infested our town.
What is that wretchedness?
It's waste, toxic waste.
The worst problem we ever faced.
It's sick, [F] God, it's sick.
Look what it did to my meds, a [G] rain stick.
But where did it come from?
Look there.
Across the Hudson River, what do you see?
Manhattan?
The beautiful, conceited people of Manhattan.
Happy to use New Jersey as their toxic dumping ground.
[F] Now listen up, [C] Manhattan.
We know you're stinking rich.
[F] Your bedsheets may [C] be satin,
[F] but Jersey's not your [G] bitch.
[F] Jersey's not your [G] bitch.
Bless you, my son.
Don't worry, sister.
Nothing can stop me.
Oh no, the town bullies.

_ [F] _ _ [C] God, I love New Jersey.
It's such a state of mind.
Why do [F] I love Jersey?
Probably [G] cause I'm blind.
Hi, Sharon.
It's Melvin.
Melvin, [C] did those bullies beat you up again?
[F] Yeah.
Well, it takes a brave [C] man not to fight back.
[F] By the way, have you noticed a new smell in town?
It's giant vats [G] of toxic nuclear waste.
But don't [C] worry.
