F#5 Bb5
you should see yourself
F#5 Bb5
when will you grow up?
F#5 C#5 B5 F#5
every knob you twist on that machine is like a crutch
F#5 Bb5
but i was just the fool
F#5 Bb5
you'd been waiting for
F#5 Bb5
who says we can't touch ourselves
C#5 B5 F#5
to keep from getting bored?
C#5 B5 F#5
nothing else is touching, that's for sure
B5 F#5
a ring around the roses
F#5 Bb5
i will watch you play
F#5 Bb5
i come here every night
F#5 C#5 B5 F#5
it's just me the bartender the waitress and the lights
C#5 B5 F#5
shining on you not getting it right
C#5 B5 F#5
we clap not for you, but for your kind
B5
a ring around the roses
F#5
everybody poses
B5
threats and then backs down
F#5
the second you put clothes on
B5
a ring around the roses
F#5
everybody knows it
B5
i will sing your fears
F#5
if you sing my neurosis
F#5 Bb5
you should back out now
F#5 Bb5
not a night too soon
F#5 C#5 B5 F#5
i'll still be here when the last poor soul has left the room
C#5 B5 F#5
standing round just like a good friend should
C#5 B5 F#5
smiling as if your songs were good
B5
a ring around the roses
F#5
everybody poses
B5
threats and then backs down
F#5
the second you put clothes on
B5
a ring around the roses
F#5
everybody knows it
B5
i will sing your fears
F#5
if you sing my neurosis
F#5 Bb5
and i sat there for hours
F#5 Bb5
waiting on the curb
F#5 C#5 B5 F#5
thinking you might like a flower from a pretty girl
C#5 B5 F#5
a ring around the waitress from the verse
C#5 B5 F#5
a ring of fire around the roses' door
C#5 B5 F#5
put it on before you lose your nerve
C#5 B5 F#5
put your hands together and i'll hurt
C#5 B5 F#5
make a sound that no one's ever heard
C#5 B5 F#5
and i hope we get what we deserve.
