Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]We're wal[G]king past the
[F]win[Dm]dows[D][Dm][A]
[Dm]Trying t[A]o di[G]srupt the clas[F]ses
Where you're [Dm]learning nothing
In [G]a gang of five or [F]more[Dm]
They'll dis[G]credit us
And [F]defile our names
But [Dm]we know the [G]truth[A]

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][A][C][G][G#5][A]

[Verse 2]
I've got a [A]noose around my [C]neck
[G]I've [Dm]got a[A] f[C]ever[G][A]
I've got [C]the stuff I think
you'd [G]want[G#][A]
I've got a noose around my [C]neck
And [G]I've heard the news
[Dm]I've heard the [A]news

[Verse 3]
Now we're [G]walking through
[F]the cam[Dm]pus[D][Dm]
This [G]is the place where mind[F]s
Are turned [Dm]into robotic[A]s[Dm]
In [G]our gang of five or [F]more[Dm]
[G]They teach us what to [F]think
But not to [Dm]think on our [A]own[C][G][A][C][G][G#][A][C][G]
[Dm][A][Am][C][G][A][C][G][G#]
[A][Am][C][G][Dm][A]
Taking [Am]this [C]back [F]to cellophane court

[Verse 4]
[F]I c[G]an'[A]t see what I've le[Am]arned[C]
[G]But know that [F]I've changed
[Dm][G][A]
My friends they [Am]all [C]laugh
But what do [G]they [F]kno[Dm]w[A]
The world is un[C]fair
It's set up all [G]the [F]way[Am][C][Dm][G][F]
[Am][C][Dm]
[C][F][Am][C][Dm][F]
[Am][A][Am][C][Dm][C][F]
The self made brain is what [C]we [A]want

[Verse 5]
Nail what I've [C]learned
To the front of [F]my [Dm]door[G][A]
Manufactur[Am]ing [C]thoughts
And selling [G]them [F]too[Dm][A]
The [Am]gang of five
[C]Is not infinite[F] yet[Dm][G][Am]
We may grow [C]up and get lost
in [F]it all

[Outro 1]
