Intro:
Am x4
Am (x02210@1) AmA (x02210@1)monk with a hard-on, And a lavender robe
Dm (xx0231@1) E (022100@1)That scratches his thighs, Through the hat that he strode
Am (x02210@1) AmAs (x02210@1)he follows a path, Filled with every desire
Dm (xx0231@1) E (022100@1) AmAnd (x02210@1)mimics his footsteps, And sets his prayers on fire.
Am (x02210@1) AmWell (x02210@1)I too have chosen, That which left no choice
Dm (xx0231@1) E (022100@1)To sing without loving,A solitary voice,
Am (x02210@1) AmTo (x02210@1)observe with passion, Each careful denial
Dm (xx0231@1) E (022100@1) AmThe (x02210@1)protrusions which give my life meaning for a while.
Am (x02210@1) Dm (xx0231@1) Sometimes I see you in berries and weeds
C (x32010@1) F (133211@1) You're brushing your teeth with liquorice seeds
F (133211@1) A# (x1333x@1)
Standing too close, Pulling your clothes,
E (022100@1) Smiling at God And the meaning of life grows.
Am (x02210@1) AmNo (x02210@1)and I'll never tell, And I'll never know
Dm (xx0231@1) E (022100@1)What candles you light, After the show
Am (x02210@1) AmAnd (x02210@1)I'll never tell, And I'll never ask
Dm (xx0231@1) E (022100@1)The meaning of life after mass.
Am Am7
