Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]When you play pass the parcel [D]with
[G]human bodyparts,
Somebody might get head
[D]but someone will [G]get hurt
And I sing [D]what you [G]like,[D]
[Bm]If you shout[F#m] it st[G]raight
back [D]at [Bm]me

[Verse 2]
There's red [D]stain[G]s a[D]ll
over the [G]place
[Bm]They're not [F#m]blood, [G]they're [A]cherryade
We throw [D]parties, [G]you throw kni[D]ves[G]
It's [Bm]only [F#m]the same if
the [G]fizzy drinks are [A]nice

[Verse 3]
It's [G]brilliant you care so
much about things
But you left talcum [Bm]powder
all [F#m]over the bathroom
And [D]yeah it's [G]great - you can
blow smoke rings
But you [D]wont get to taste her lips
if you [F#m]do get to kiss her
An[G]d it's your [D]party but I'll [G]die if I want to,
I'll [D]die if [G]I w[D]ant t[Bm]o

[Verse 4]
There's red [G]stain[D] s [G]all[D]
over the [G]place
[Bm]They're not [F#m]blood,
[G]they're [A]cherryade
[D]We throw [G]parties, you [D]throw [G]knives
It's [Bm]only the [F#m]same if the
[G]fizzy drinks are [A]nice

[Verse 5]
[G]The music was okay,
but [Bm]the fresh air was bet[F#m]ter
And I [G]couldn't tell if the singer's keyboard
[D]was a crutch [F#m]or a synt[D]hesizer
But [G]it sounded like it had
broken [D]a limb,[G]
Each and every time he pushed
the key down or in

[Verse 6]
There's red [D]stain[G]s all
[D]over [G]the place
[Bm]They're not [F#m]blood,
[G]they're [F#m]cherry[D]ade
We throw parties, you throw [G]knives
It's [Bm]only the [F#m]same if the
[G]fizzy drinks are [A]nice

[Verse 7]
There's [G]red [D]stains [G]all over
[D]the [Bm]place[F#m]
[G]They're [A]not[G] blood, they're
cherryade
We throw [D]parties, you throw [G]knives
[D]It's all[Bm] the same if t[F#m]he fizzy d[G]rinks are ni[A]ce

[Verse 8]
Team [G]Campesinos, Trick or Treating
[Bm]On the driveway in[F#m]
the [Bm]middle of [G]August
One of us dressed as a zombie
[Bm]One of us dressed as a pirate
[G]One of us dressed as a [D]ninja
Four of us [G]dressed [D]as school [Bm]girls
And I'm star[G]ing you straight in the eyes,
I'm shak[D]ing my head and I'm star
[Bm]ing [D]you straight in your e[G]yes
