E C#m F#m Born to multiply, born to gaze into night skies A F#m E All you want's one more Saturday C#m Well look here, until then F#m They're gonna buy your life's time A F#m So keep your wick in the air and your feet in the fetters B 'Till the day E We come in doing cartwheels B We all crawl out by ourselves E And your shape on the dance floor B Will have me thinking such filth will gauge my eyes. C#m A You'd be damned to be one of us, girl C#m A Faced with a dodo's conundrum E F#m A Ah, I felt like I could just fly G#m B But nothing happend every time I tried Woo ooo, Woo ooo E C#m F#m A duotone on the wall, the selfless fool who hoped he'd save us all A F#m E Never dreamt of such sterile hands C#m You keep 'em folded in your lap F#m And raise them up to beg for scraps A F#m You know, he's holding you down, With the tips of his fingers B Just the same E You'll be pulled from the ocean B But just a minute too late E Or changed by a potion B And find a handsome young mate for you to love C#m A You'll be damned to pining through the windowpanes C#m A E You know you'd trade your life for any ordinary Joe's F#m A Well, do it now or grow old G#m B Your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold

E B Been in love since you were twenty-one E B You haven't laughed since January E B You try and make this up this is so much fun E B But we know it to be quite contrary E B Lalalala, la la la la C#m A Dare to be one of us, girl C#m A Facing the android's conundrum E F#m A I feel like I should just cry G#m B/A But nothing happens every time I take one on the chin G#m B/A You're Himmler your coat, you don't know how long I've been G#m B/A Watching the lantern dim G#m B/A Starved of oxygen A F#m E So give me your hand and let's jump out the window
