[Verse 1: Kimya Dawson] G Ever since I was a kid D On the backs of my two eyelids C I hid two Teleprompters there Transmitting words from who knows where G A walkie-talkie on a mission D Roger, roger will I listen C Or will I just pass it along In the form of a sing-a-long G When muse annoys, devoid and null D I feel a tingle in my skull C Like ticker tape the words appear There's a parade between my ears G I preach self-love, I know it’s true D It's easier to say than do C I sing these messages to you But now I need to hear them too G D C I am beautiful I am powerful I am strong and I am lovable G D C I am beautiful I am powerful I am strong and I am lovable [Verse 2: Aesop Rock] G I was laying bricks in a line Yap full of dog toy D Picturing a life beyond that of a protocol droid C Bleep bloop boy ox boycott pea soup First learn to eat pain at St. Peter's preschool-yum G Now that's a painkiller I can speak through D Airbrush letters on a pristine gene pool C See, my mother said her father drew a ton But all his cartoons had been swallowed by the Susquehanna flood in '72 G The year that he would subsequently pass D I know he had a stroke but I assume that's only half C But now I'm signing up for finger-drawing class in a tux like a gentleman Marrying his ash to his dust G Last on the kickball team draft pick-list D First to the King Kullen practicing his kickflips C I'd like to say it's 'cause I was a rebel Truthfully it's easier to say "oh hell" instead of "hello" G Hi, you need to get out more D I dunno, I don't wanna be there when the geometry domino C You need to get out more Maybe, or maybe his pace is better suited for pacing G You need to get out more D Never- I am nailed to the floor-I am snail under pressure C You need to get out more Fine [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-uncluded/353469.html ] [Verse 3: Kimya Dawson] G Ever since I was a kid D On the backs of my two eyelids C I hid two Teleprompters there Transmitting words from who knows where G And this is why when I'm on stage D My eyes are closed, I'm in a haze C I looks like I'm made out of clay I'm overwhelmed and under-glazed G I'm making vases out of snakes D I'm a kiln half-full of mistakes C When kneading it, air’s overlooked It's gonna crack when it gets cooked G So self-forgiveness is the key D To re-sculpting my sanity C Mindfulness, humility And taking time to care for me G I preach self-love, I know it’s true D It's easier to say than do C I sing these messages to you But now I need to hear them too G D C I am beautiful I am powerful I am strong and I am loveable G D C I am beautiful I am powerful I am strong and I am loveable [Verse 4: Aesop Rock] G I was laying bricks in a line Yap full of copper-top D Picturing a life beyond that of a dish-washer C Pot buzz ping Criss-crossed arms in a tub ring Learned heartbreak on a Zelda-1 sub screen-numb G D Learned dark days by the scent of poached dove meat Some part ways and it's fugly C Maybe the sum of the parts became lesser That each individually making the same gesture G And you don't wanna interrupt the overlapping network D So you throw a bag together and elope with cabin pressure C To disappear instead of interfere with any customs Or differing definitions of liberty and justice G Big dummy dig a hole in the dirt D He put his head in the hole; he is alone in this world C And dying slowly from the comfort of his home full of worms Until you hear a little voice say "yo let's go get dessert" Wait-what? G You need to get out more D I dunno-over 2 million dead bats in NY alone C You need to get out more Maybe, maybe not Maybe I'll just stay back and survey the lot G You need to get out more D Never- I am nailed to the floor in a jail made of deserts C You need to get out more OK |
