On a saturday night in Pennsylvania

We've gotta tear this building down

To try and ruin our fun

Let's blow them all away

C
  Another night we'll be
 E
Staying in some crack hotel
     Am
And sneaking everyone in
G                    F     Ab G
Through the bathroom window
C
  Gonna blow up everything in sight
        E
And get chased away into the night
        Am            G
By some crazy bastard with a
        F          Ab G
Shotgun in his hand

We've gotta tear this building down
    E               F
The cops show up as usual

To try and ruin our fun
