Barenaked Ladies "Angry People" From the album Barenaked Ladies are Men --------------------------------------- INTRO: E7 A C#m D E A C#m D E 1. A C#m That's the problem, dear, with angry people, they D E Try to go it alone Digging in and making cranky feeble pleas that Other angries disown Angry people think a good soluion is Getting others involved So they surround themselves with happy people And watch their smiles dissolve [Chorus] Bm E We just drag them down Bm E We just drag them down Bm E We just drag them down N.C. A C#m D E A C#m D E Until they're just like us. 2. Angry people get so sanctimonious Telling us what to do Hoping no one outs them all as phonies just Cause we are all phonies too. Those of us who once had wives and families Understand what I mean What was once a calm and peaceful refuge Is overtaken by spleen [Chorus] Cause we just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down A (carries through to bridge) Until they're just like us. [Bridge] (A) C#m D I am the singer in the band F#m E A We're only trying to lend a hand C#m D And though it's not what we had planned E We understand [Chorus] That we just drag you down We just drag you down We just drag you down Until you're just like us. A C#m D E x2 3. In a square, a thousand angry people are Waving signs in the air While a million other happy people are Trying hard not to care. All the happy people's biggest problem is Never fearing the worst All the rest of us will never sleep until Your happy bubbles are burst [Chorus] We just drag you down Didn?t I just drag you down We just drag you down A C#m D Until you're just like us. Dm Bm E Oh, Until you?re just like us N.C. Till you?re just like us Ending: N.C. - - - A C#m D E (repeat as long as desired) A
