G5  C5 (alternate)
Karen, I'm not taking sides
I don't think I'll ever do that again
I'll end up winning and I won't know why
I'm really trying to shine here, I'm really trying
You're changing clothes and closing windows on me all the time

[chorus]
C5        Bb5       Ab5          Bb5         C5
Well, whatever you do, listen, you better wait for me
    Bb5         Ab5     Bb5          Eb5
No, I wouldn't go out alone into America
    Bb5       C5
Whatever you do
            Ab5         Eb5
Listen, and you better wait for me
    Bb5         C5
No, I wouldn't go out alone

[verse]
G5  C5 (alternate)
Karen, we should call your father, maybe it's just a phase
He'll know the trick to get a wayward soul to change his ways
It's a common fetish for a doting man
to ballerina on the coffee table cock in hand

[chorus]
C5        Bb5       Ab5          Bb5         C5
Well, whatever you do, listen, you better wait for me
    Bb5         Ab5     Bb5          Eb5
No, I wouldn't go out alone into America
    Bb5       C5
Whatever you do
            Bb5         Eb5
Listen, and you better wait for me
    Bb5         C5
No, I wouldn't go out alone

Bb5                       G5
Without warm water in my head
                                 D5
All I see is black and white and red
                      C5
I feel mechanical and thin
                        Bb5
Hear me play my violin again
                           G5
I'm living in the target's shoes
                                 D5
All I see is black and white and blue.
                        C5
Idle, idle, idle, idle, protect the nest
                    G5  C5
Protect the title

[verse]
G5  C5 (alternate)
Karen, put me in a chair, fuck me and make me a drink
I've lost direction, and I'm past my peak
I'm telling you this isn't me
No, this isn't me
Karen, believe me, you just haven't seen my good side yet

[chorus]
C5        Bb5       Ab5          Bb5         C5
Well, whatever you do, listen, you better wait for me
    Bb5         Ab5     Bb5          Eb5
No, I wouldn't go out alone into America
    Bb5       C5
Whatever you do
            Bb5         Eb5
Listen, and you better wait for me
    Bb5         C5
No, I wouldn't go out alone

Bb5                       G5
Without warm water in my head
                                 D5
All I see is black and white and red
                      C5
I feel mechanical and thin
                        Bb5
Hear me play my violin again
                           G5
I'm living in the target's shoes
                                 D5
All I see is black and white and blue.
                        C5
Idle, idle, idle, idle, protect the nest
Protect the title

Bb5
I must be me, I'm in my head
      G5
Black birds are circling my bed
  D5
I must be me, I must be me
      C5
Black feathers are falling on my feet
Bb5                         G5
Idle, idle, idle, idle, protect the nest
Protect the title
D5                         C5
Idle, idle, idle, idle, protect the nest
Protect the title
