LYRICS AND ORDER
*****************
0:00 - 1:44
Riff 1 (With Riff 2 occasionally thrown in instead)
this is the part of me that needs medication
this is the part of me that believes in heaven
this is the part of me that thinks outer space is all dead
this is the part of me that wishes it was with it
this is the part of me that's trying to be funny
this is the part of me that loves my parents
this is the part of me that thinks that ants are cavemen
this is the part of me that thinks all humans are ants
this is the part of me that learns from sitcoms
this is the part of me that means nothing

1:45 - 2:01
No Guitar sounds or Lyrics

Chords

Intro: D/G
      D           G         
and I do-o-o-on't know
     D                                                           
well I could go away and you could wish that I had stayed or just
G
stayed gone
      D     G
and I don't know
      D     G
and I don't know at all
    D                      G
so, out of the context and into what you meant
        D
and you know your reasons
          G
you don't know who you are but you know who you wanna be
D     G
I-I-I doooon't know
       D                                                G 
so you go to the library to get yourself a book and you look and you look
                                    D
but you didn't find anything to read
              G
and I do-on't know at all

Riff 1 (With Riff 2 thrown in occasionally instead)
left all my kinder parts rusting and peeling
that guy was complaining as he looked at the ceiling
my nose isn't that big it looks nothing like me
we're all doctors trading sadness for numbness
grass looks much greener but it's green-painted cement
the mayor's machines are there cleaning the pavement
you can't make dirt clean so we'll just lemon-scent it
