punched a monk in Tibet

Went to Rome and spread V.D.
robbed the homeless in Tahiti
was slapped by a woman in the great Euphrates
kidnapped kids in the slums of Haiti

Play high E string open on all chords

Poisoned livestock in Korea
tainted foodshelves in Tanzania
torched Saigon like a Buddhist pyro
slashed tires in the streets of Cairo


Verse 6 with Progression 2:

I chucked eggs at Castro's doorway
I once puked on the king of Norway
for eighteen days I roamed Japan
choking little kittens with my bare hands

Stuck my gum on Venus De Milo
did Zimbabwe shooting rhinos
ran nude straight through Nepal
spit my chew in the Taj Mahal
