[C]Look, ma
They're [G]gonna fry [D]Tim McVeigh

Why would they want to do
a thing like that?"
[G]I said, "Well, he killed all those
[D]people in Oklahoma [G]City"

Car [D]bombs kill people"
[G]And I said, "Well, yeah, ma
[C]But they gotta do something
[Em]with him"

A little girl down my block [G]was born
with silicone in her breast[D]s
Turned out her grand[G]mother and her mother
had both had the implant[C]s done
Well, evolution [G]took care
of it this time [D]around
And I wondered what it is [G]about
So many women with big breasts
make [C]them look so sad
And I thought, well,
[Em]maybe it has somethin' to do with the weight
[D]The burden they're asked to
carry in the world
To [G]feed it, to be the object of
its de[C]sires
And I wondered what burdens the rest of us

And not be the first to avert my [G]eyes
No matter what
[C]I was planning to be gone
for ten [G]minutes
But things started happening

[Verse 6]
I was in a fishing village [G]in coastal Spain
It was our lady of [D]abortion Sunday afternoon
[G]All the pregnant women
in their [C]first trimester
Filed before the priest [G]to
receive the blessing of
"Try again [D]sometime, try [G]again"
The old barber had dyed [C]his hair
green for the occasion
And [G]pierced his nipples
And was riding [D]his skateboard to the statue
of Conan O'Brien
[G]Where he was doing
backflips for the [C]kids
Who threw [Em]coins given
to them by their par[D]ents[G]

[Verse 7]
A [C]visiting lecturer
[G]Achingly handsome had just
[D]finished giving a
"How to build bombs in your [G]basement"
seminar [C]in the park
All the young girls put away
their [Em]notebooks dreamily
And [D]put dandelions [G]in their
[C]hair

[Verse 8]
The chimpanzee [G]who had managed
to type out Hamlet three years before
[D]Was sitting in the third floor office
[G]of the driver's license building
Typing [C]out zoning ordinances
Typing [Em]out learner's permits
[D]Bored and lonely

[Verse 9]
[C]
Pee-wee Herman Herman was sitting
in the cent[G]ral square in the grass
Na[D]ked and masturbating
While [G]all the townspeople
moved to him slowly
[C]And kissed him softly
[Em]And sung lullabies i[D]n the [G]grass

[Verse 10]
And in [C]Berkeley
And in Greenwich Village
And [G]in Paris
And in Scottsbluff, Neb[D]raska
No one sits around funky little
[G]coffee shops anymore
Talking revolution
[C]Now they get a Starbuc[G]ks to go
They go back to [D]their basketball
games
Where they see [G]who can jump higher
Who can [C]jam
Who can take it to the rack
[G]And they all wear baseball caps
Except they [D]don't say Yankees or
Dodgers or Car[G]dinals anymore
They say [C]Nike, Reebok, Adidas
[G]Because the pro players don't play
for teams any[D]more
They play for shoe compan[G]ies
And the kids [C]aren't fooled
Nah, they're just biding their [G]time
Waiting for the millennium to [D]come
When all the computers will crash
Because the best scientists in the world
Forgot to make them read zer[C]o

[Verse 12]
[C]
Now I was sitting there with a
headful of dark [G]thoughts
Like I [D]sometimes get
[G]Suddenly everything cleared
[C]And I realized that the only
purpose to re[G]volution
Is to be able to love who you [D]want
How you want
When [G]you want
And where you want
[C]So I took off all my clothes
[G]Stole a boat
Rowed [D]out to the middle of a lake
[G]And I jumped [C]in
And I looked back at you [G]an d said
"Come [D]on! Get [C]wet!"
