Harvey Danger – Flagpole Sitta Album: Where Have All the Merrymakers Gone? (1997)
[D, Am, C, D]
I had visions, I was in them, I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer, the rotteness and evil in me,
Finger tips, Have memory’s, Mine can’t forget the curves of your body,
And when I feel a bit naughty, I run it up the flag pole and see,
Who salutes but no one ever does,
I’m not sick but I’m not well,
And I’m so hot, Cause I’m in hell….
Been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding,
The cretins cloning and feeding, And I don’t even own a TV,
Put me in the hospital for nerves and then they had to commit me.
You told them all I was crazy, They cut off my legs now I’m an amputee,
damn you
I’m not sick but I’m not well, and I’m so hot, cause I’m in hell
I’m not sick but I’m not well, and it’s a sin, to live so well
BRIDGE [A, G, F, D/F#]
I wanna publish ‘zines, and rage against machines
I wanna pierce my tongue, it doesn’t hurt, it feels fine
The trivial sublime, I’d like to turn off time
aand kill my mind, [D7 – D/F#] you kill my mind [D7 – D/F#]
Paranoia Paranoia everybody’s comin to get me, Just say you never met me,
I’m running underground with the moles, Digging holes,
Hear the voices in my head, I swear to god it sounds like their snoring,
But if you’re bored then you’re boring, The agony and the irony it’s killing me!
[chorus]
