Cookie Jar

Year: 2003 - Album: On and On

Written by Rebecca Johnson, Joseph Alexander Angel, Unknown Composer, Robert Lee Kelly

	  		F#m - C#m - B - C#m (2x) (In my opinion it's the E, instead of C#m, fingered like the C,  
4 frets forward. And if not during the whole song, at least after each riff C# E F# G# F# E he plays) 
  
F#m  C#m                   B C#m  
    i would turn on the tv, but its so embarrassing  
F#m  C#m                   B C#m  
    to see all the other people, i dont know what they mean   
F#m  C#m                   B C#m    
    it was magic at first, when they spoke without sound  
F#m  C#m                   B C#m   
    but now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn that thing down  
F#m  C#m                   B C#m  
    turn it around  
  
(and so on)  
  
    it wasnt me, says the boy with the gun  
    sure i pulled the trigger, but it needed to be done  
    because lifes been killing me ever since it begun  
    you cant blame me because im too young  
    
    you cant blame me, sure the killer was my son  
    but i didnt teach him to pull the trigger of the gun  
    its the killing on his tv screen  
    you cant blame me, its those images he seen  
   
    you cant blame me, says the media man  
    i wasnt the one who came up with the plan  
    i just point my camera at what the people want to see  
    its a two way mirror and you cant blame me  
    
    you cant blame me, says the singer of the song  
    or the maker of the movie which he based his life on  
    its only entertainment, as anyone can see  
    its smoke machines and makeup, you cant fool me  
      
    it was you, it was me, it w  
      
    as every man  
    weve all got the blood on our hands  
    we only receive what we demand  
    and if we want hell then hells what well have  
      
    i would turn on the tv, but its so embarrassing  
    to see all the other people, dont know what they mean  
    it was magic at first, but let everyone down  
    and now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn it around  
    turn it around.
