         E (022100@1)      You get a pen and i'll get a paper 
                                       B (x2444x@1)      We're gonna write ourselves a song 
 
      We'll drive the poetics crazy 
                                               E (022100@1)      I don't think the damn thing's gonna rhyme

                                        B (x2444x@1)      I guess he thinks the same about me 
    
      Guess it really takes one to know one 
                                            E (022100@1)      And you look like an old friend of mine (kind of short red headed)

      I've been up for two whole days 
 
      Turn me over and roll me over 
                                  E (022100@1)
      Wind me up for one more rhyme

      He took my songs and he took my money 
                                                   E (022100@1)

                                       B (x2444x@1)      We're gonna steal ourselves a song 
 
      We'll drive the poetics crazy 
                                    E (022100@1)
