[Intro 1]
[Am][D][G][F][G][E]
[Am][D][G][F][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
Strange [F]paradise
that you're living [Dm]in,
[D]Strangers talk [Dm]to you in [C]hissing tongues,
fictioning.
I've gone inside some,
[F]you don't see me [Dm]none,
[D]I don't speak w[Dm]ith the fear you
[C]secretly [G]like [Am]to hear.

[Verse 2]
You get stuck out past the [D]toll chains
And your [G]heart begins its
[F]boiling in the [E]cavern
Of your missing shame,
[Am]You hear those flapping [Dm]buds?
[D]You got your values plucked.
[G]Know it's the end[F] of conviction.

[Verse 3]
[G]You [C]see them walk
the streets in pack[F]s
Like so many chimpanzees,
[Dm]Those mental amputees,
No [C]culture only liberties.

[Verse 4]
If I could wipe them [F]out,
Like never born nor [Dm]seen,
But it's always been this way,
[C]But I think you know wha[G]t I m[Am]ean.

[Verse 5]
I'm willing to go [D]now,
I'm [G]ready to [F]feel no [E]pain,[Am]
Just a sharp red rip,
[D]Then the lights go out on my [G]trip,
One more [F]death in the prison.

[Interlude 1]
[G][Am][D][G]
[F][G][E][Am][D]
[G][F][G][F][G]
[C]

[Verse 6]
Hear the crows [F]speak,
know the crow's [Dm]tongue,
Crows don't eat their own [C]meat,
they don't brook no carry on.
So they can speak their bit [F]the Mob,
but I can't cop that kind [Dm]of gob,
Babble and spit the evening [C]long,
make a right out of [G]being always [Am]wrong.

[Verse 7]
I'm willing to go [D]now,
I'm [G]ready to [F]feel no [E]pain,[Am]
Just a short, sharp rip,
[D]Then the lights go out on my tri[G]p,
One more [F]death in the prison.

[Verse 8]
[G]O for the Mobil[Am]ity get what
the Mo[D]bility seek,
Though not [G]one of it [F]knows what [E]it means,
[Am]
You paint it a picture its eyes roll [D]back,

[Verse 9]
You sing it a song it screams.
[G]O the demis[F]e of diction,
[G]Know it's the end[F] of conviction,
[G]Just another dea[F]th in the prison.
