A Asus4
She says she's read too many fashion magazines
A Asus4
She's forgotten what real love is like
A Asus4
And as the basement collects more kids off the street
A Asus4
They smoke themselves to death waiting for the band to begin
AAAAAAAAEs4

A Asus4
They've been tuning up there for an hour now
A Asus4
And I don't think I can stand another minute more
A Asus4
But just then the first chord strums, and the drums set in
A Asus4
And I know what I have been waiting around for
A E
Because no one's going home until the morning comes
A E
No one's going to sleep until the sun comes up
A
Did you hear those first two songs?
E
They were fucking tuff
A E
And the band's not going to stop until the cops show up
A E A E
So hold your applause until the end
A E AE
And wait for the sadness to set in
A E
Cause that's the only feeling that's worth a damn
AAAAAAAAEs4

A Asus4
He says he's done with the pop music scene
A Asus4
There's too many opinions and so few are worth a shit
A Asus4
He has got to learn to act a little more mean
A Asus4
Cause the mean ones always end up with the record deals
A E
But it's only when I'm angry that I feel complete
A E
When we are screaming at each other is when I'm most happy
A E
I hang out with my friends and then I get depressed
A E
And I drink myself to sleep with any strength that's left
A E
And I quit going to church a year ago
A E
And my teachers think that my faith is gone
A E
But I can do without the eucharist
A E A
Cause I found God in a Solid Jackson song
(and then, when he's singing "a Solid Jackson song", at the end of "song"
Play this again and do some screaming and yelling and such)
