[Intro 1]
[Em][D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em][C][Em][C][Em]
[C][Em][C][Em]

[Verse 1]
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late, that is [D]what [Em]I do
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late,
that's what I'm [D]doing [Em]to you
That [C]smirk on your [Em]face
was de[C]signed by me
[Em]I fuck[C]ing curated it,
[Em]like magic[C]ally[Em]
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late, that is [D]what I [Em]do
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late,
that's what I'm [D]doing [Em]to you

[Verse 2]
[C]You don't like what I'v[Em]e become?
[C]What did[Em] you expect to happen?
[C]You come aro[Em]und with
your [C]lips flap[Em]ping
All [D]hopped up on [Em]diet
[D]gum[Em]
[D]And everything you [Em]say is
supposed to [D]make me come
[Em]Like,

[Verse 3]
[C]I should feel grate[Em]ful
you are [C]in [Em]my life
But [C]I'd rather dig out my [Em]own spleen
with [C]a butter k[Em]nife
[D]Hey, I've got [Em]some Gainsburgers you
[D]can have if you want [Em]'em
[D]You might as well,
[Em]you've clearly [D]hit rock bot[Em]tom

[Verse 4]
You prob[C]ably hang out at Times
[Em]Square [C]with in your pock[Em]et
And [C]around your [Em]neck is your
[C]grandmother's lock[Em]et
[D]With a pic[Em]ture inside of what
you might [D]have been
Sound [Em]familiar?

[Verse 5]
[D]Do you even know
[Em]where that cheese is made?
[D]It's from Iowa,
[Em]you dullard. Ever [C]heard [Em]of it?

[Verse 6]
I knew this guy [C]from [Em]Ames,
Ames, Iowa, [C]Patrick
He was [Em]so not to be in[C] to,
in the [Em]most extreme [D]way[Em]

[Verse 7]
By the way, your [D]bedside manner is
[Em]reminiscent of a [D]chuckle of [Em]hyenas
Except, yes, [D]it is a chuckle [Em]of hyenas,
[C]Dr. Turdface
It's a [Em]col lective noun
Do [C]you even [Em]know what a collective noun [C]is,
[Em]Stupidzilla?

[Verse 8]
[C]Hmm, let's [Em]see,
I think [D]your group would [Em]be called a misery
[D]Or , no,
[Em]a path[D]eticness of fuck[Em]wits
[D]Oh, oh right, pardon[Em] me,
[C]your doofusness, a [Em]patheticness of [C]bar[Em]istas

[Verse 9]
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late, that is [D]what I [Em]do
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late,
that's what I'm [D]doing to [Em]you
That [C]smirk on your [Em]face
was de[C]signed by me
[Em]I fuck[C]ing cura[Em]ted it,
like [C]magically[Em]
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late, that is [D]what I [Em]do
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late,
that's what I'm [D]doing [Em]to y[G]ou

[Verse 10]
You know, being with [A]you was like a cross
between Cannibal [B]Apocalypse and Lassie 9
Except nowhere near as both
of those [G]movies were
It's still a personal [A]conundrum of mine
How anyone [G#]can have such
few of self aware[F#]ness[B]

[Verse 11]
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late, that is [D]what I [Em]do
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late,
that's why you [D]just took a poo
[Em]In those s[C]lacks you're wearing,
[Em]is that a leis[C]ure suit[Em]?
Did [C]you make that yourself?
[Em]That's a rhetorica[C]l question[Em]

[Verse 12]
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late, that is [D]what I [Em]do
I ma[D]nipu[Em]late,
it's rather [D]easy [Em]with you
You're sort of [C]begging for [Em]it
with your [C]stupid [Em]face
You're like [C]Daffy [Em]Duck about [C]to be
[Em]erased[D][Em]

[Verse 13]
Did you really [D]think you could seduce [Em]me
in a leisure [D]suit?[Em][D][Em]
[C]Well, I, [Em]yeah, okay,
[C]fair enough but[Em] that was like thre[C]e weeks ago[Em]
I'd like to see you [C]try that now
[Em]Uh,

[Verse 14]
[D]I'm[Em] not staring at your crotch,
you [D]maynard, [Em]I'm not
[D]Well, [Em]it's hard not to,
[D]you practically dis[Em]located your own[C] hips thrusting it [Em]at m[C]e[Em]
You're like that neon sign that
[C]keeps Kramer up all [Em]night[C]
[Em]Yeah[D], I gu[Em]ess you did keep me
up all night [D]a few [Em]times

[Verse 15]
[D]Rea[Em]lly? 463[D]? How
[Em]could you know that?
We only went [C]out for [Em]a year[C]
[Em]What? [C]I don't know,
I was [Em]just gonna order out, [C]I'm gonna
[Em]Well[D], sure[B], I gues[Em]s so

[Verse 16]
[D]Hey, um, [Em]I'm sorry I snapped at you
a [D]few minutes [Em]ago
It's nothing person[D]al, I hope [Em]you know[D][Em][D][Em][D]
[Em][D][Em][D][Em][D][Em][D]
[Em][D][Em][C][Em][C][Em][C]
[Em][C][Em][D][B][Em][D][Em][D][B]
[Em][D][Em][C][Em][C][Em][C]
[Em][C][Em][D][Em]

[C][Em][C][Em][C][Em]

[Verse 17]
I [Em]manipulate, that is what I do
I manipulate,
that's what I'm doing to you
That [C]smirk on your [Em]face
was de[C]signed [Em]by me
I [C]fucking [Em]curated it, like [C]magic[Em]ally
I manipulate, that is [D]what [Em]I do
I manipulate,

[Outro 1]
that's what I'm doing to you
