Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[F][Ca[C]lm[F][C]
[F]Dow[C]n! [F]Down!
Calm [C]Down! [F]Thats what [C]I,
[F]wan[C] na[F] do]

[Verse 2]
[Am][You gots ta chill]

[Verse 3]
Was the last words he [Am]heard
Headin' out the door on December 31st
7 am, cause big worms for early birds
Didn't wake his wife,
didn't wanna worry her
While she sound asleep in IKEA furniture
Law wire fences protectin
her from burg[F]lars
[Am]Besides, this business is personal
He done dirt for so long,
he can't get no dirtier
[Calm Down!]
Is he still dreamin?
Or is somebody singing,
[F]will he still [Am]leavin?
Cause nobody is around so
[C]his ears must deceive him
[Am]Open the garage and, jump in the B[F]M[C]
Cuttin and speedin
[Am]Drivin up the streets like
swimming up a stream.
So hard [F]to get through
[C]the cross town [Am]traffic
It's ill enough to scream
[Down!] Know what I mean

[Verse 4]
[Am][You gots
ta chill]

[Verse 5]
Na, he's disregarding every warning [Am]On
a side of the road,
livin way out of the margin
Flashin his headlights,
Not stoppin at red lights
A sharp left turn almost
hit a kid's bike
Breathe deep I don't need beep
from the cops already
Can't afford pullin up or gettin stopped,
forget [C]it
[Am][Calm Down!] With the car full of explosives

[Verse 6]
[Am]Survivin'
the slightest impact
[C]what are the pro[Am]gnosis?
Not good so knock wood and spit
over my shoulder
Don't look bike tough I fell
pity when its over
Life's been hell ever since
that letter in October
Saying I'm fired but
it was getting even colder
When the doctor called sayin you
ain't gettin any older
You got numerous tumours in
your stomach and your colon
I give you three months and
it might be prolong
With the right treatment
and a reason to hold on
Off the records,
probably job related
But don't waste time pressin charges,
cause my bill who paid it?
The company of course
I'm here to the keep the work force
Not well but affected and
Well you've been se[F]lected
By [C]natural se[Am]lection
If it's less than you expected,
Sorry, official reason of recession
[C]You gots to [Am]go another way
of I expressing
Our gratitude,
take these [C]two when your [F]depressed and
[Calm[C]Down

[Verse 7]

[G][C]
[F]I, wanna do[C][F][C]
Down. [F]Down. Aaaaah]

[Verse 8]
[Am][You gots ta chill]

[Verse 9]
Fuck that I gots [Am]kill
My boss and my doctor
with his doctor bills
Tellin me to pap some pills
with three months left
They never saw me in [F]life
but they'll [Am]see my death
As [C]he made another left
He [Am]saw that big billboard
that he helped design
It made him wanna kill more
[C]Next, [Am]he saw them big- ass letters
IKEA, king of the business centre
He ran his car to the entrance
of that blue and yellow building
That still will be his death when
the blewing finally killed him
And then on the [C]twelve o'clock [Am]news
It was the war on terror and all
[C]hell broke loose
He was a suicide bomber killin [Am]himself
and two more persons
A guard a cleaner,
injuring some clerks and [C]the boss gave a speech
To [Am]his people were he urged them
Best thing we can to is just
go back to work and
[F]CALM, [C]DOWN[F]
[That's what [C]I want,

[Verse 10]
