[Intro 1]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][Em]

[Verse 1]
The [Em]beer I had for [G]breakfast
was a [D]bottle of Mad [Em]Dog
And my 20 20
[G]vision was [D]fifty percent [Em]off
You said punch-buggy [G]red
and punched me [D]right in my left [Em]eye
I said don't you mean pe[G]diddle?
And I [D]lit his house on [Em]fire
He came home on [G]acid
I was [D]holding his shot[Em]gun
I was dressed like Tina [G]Turner
in Be[D]yond Thunder[Em]dome
He said, "don't shoot"
I [G]said, "I won't, I [D]love you, you're my [Em]friend"
I handed him my [G]wig
and shot my[D]self in the [Em]head

[Verse 2]
Then I [Em]stuffed a box of [G]tissues
in the [D]hole in my [Em]skull
I got in my [G]Mazda and I [D]drove to the [Em]mall
I got a big Johnson [G]shirt
and some [D]silicone [Em]tits
When I pulled out the [G]tissues
they were [D]covered with [Em]shit
And the beer I had for [G]breakfast
was a [D]box of cheap white [Em]wine
And the boom box on my [G]shoulder
was a [D]box of clemen[Em]tines
I ate every single [G]one
without [D]noticing the [Em]mold
You said, "you're gross, my [G]darling"
I said, [D]"no, I'm rock and [Em]roll"

[Verse 3]
[Em]Even though I'd [G]never ever [D]been in a [Em]band
I got cool as black [G]ice tat[D]tooed on my [Em]hand
And the christians gave me [G]comic books
as [D]if I would be [Em]scared
Of burning in [G]hell, well I was [D]already [Em]there
And the beer I had for [G]breakfast
Silver [D]bullet in the [Em]brain
And the beer I had for [G]lunch
was a [D]bottle of night [Em]train
And the beer I had for [G]dinner
was my [D]crazy neighbor's [Em]pills
We had to sit down on [G]skateboards
jut to [D]make it down the [Em]hill

[Verse 4]
Then I [Em]peed my [G]pants
and you [D]stole the groom's ci[Em]gar
And some old man made me [G]watch him
mastur[D]bate locked in his [Em]car
When I got back to the apart[G]ment,
you were [D]face down on the [Em]floor
You said don't go to [G]bed yet
Let's go [D]get a sixty- [Em]four
And the [Em]beer I had for [G]breakfast
was a [D]pint of Jim [Em]Beam
And a fifth of peach [G]schnapps
and some [D]warm Sunny [Em]D
And you said, "bottoms [G]up"
just as [D]I bottomed o[Em]ut
I tried to scream "fuck [G]you"
but blood was [D]pouring out my [Em]mouth

[Verse 5]
And [Em]Evan Dando [G]never planned
on [D]telling you the [Em]truth
And your Leonardo [G]ID card
is [D]your fountain of [Em]youth
You can be a teen[G]ager
for your [D]whole fucking [Em]life
Just find some pretty [G]sucker
and [D]make that bitch your [Em]wife
I [Em]guess by now you [G]all
know my friend [D]Danny broke his [Em]neck
He was driving home from [G]Sirens
when he [D]got into a [Em]wreck
First I cried for [G]him and [D]then I cried for [Em]me
Haunted by the [G]ghost
of the [D]girl I used to [Em]be

[Verse 6]
But the [Em]rocks with [G]holes
are [D]warm in my [Em]hands
And I buried my [G]toes in the [D]hot hot [Em]sand
And the silver pink [G]pony [D]kisses me [Em]and says
"You've come a long, long [G]way
and [D]you deserve to be really

[Outro 1]
[Em](happy)[G][D][Em]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][G][D][Em]
[Em][D][Em][D]
[Em][D][Em]
