Verse 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
I was riding on a concrete slab, 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
down a river of useless flab  
A5 ( RIFF4 ) 
it was such a murderful day  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
I heard a witch-doctor say,  

Chorus 
B     F#   B   C  G C D    C# 
"I'll turn you into a toadstool"  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
Now I'm looking for the joke with a microscope  

Verse 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
my muscle's twitching on your words 
E5 ( RIFF3 )  
if you're on the streets you lose your nerves  
A5 ( RIFF4 ) 
divinity throws you a curve  
E5 ( RIFF3 )  
sticks you and then you go berserk  

Chorus 
B     F#   B   C  G C D    C# 
as life goes by you in a blur  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
Leaves you murmuring a dirty word

F5 E5 F5 E5 F5 E5 E5 x2 - Riff 3 

Verse 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
page out of a comic book  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
a chicken hanging on a hook  
A5 ( RIFF4 ) 
a river and a babbling brook 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
 a sermon and a teenage hook  

Chorus 
B     F#   B   C  G C D    C# 
shaking my hand at your fake face  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
a suicide a certain look  

Verse 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
a microphone a blues guitar  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
people feeling near and far  
A5 ( RIFF4 ) 
stupidity a mental scar  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
put cruel into cruelty  

Chorus 
B     F#   B   C  G C D    C# 
abhorring     no  inspiration  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
an alcoholic at the bar 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
everything just goes to far

Verse 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
I was pissing on the desert sands,  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
when the desert whispered to me,  
A5 ( RIFF4 ) 
"damn! isn't this a shame?  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
things will never be the same..."  

Chorus 
B     F#   B   C  G C D    C# 
I run this gas and oasis  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
now I'm looking for the joke with a microscope  

Verse 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
I was a teenage dinosaur,  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
stoned and obsolete  
A5 ( RIFF4 ) 
I didn't get fucked and I didn't get kissed  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
I got so fucking pissed 

Chorus 
B     F#   B   C  G C D    C# 
using my head for an ashtray  
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
now I'll tell you who I am  

Outro 
E5 ( RIFF3 ) 
I'm the repo-man  
E5 ( RIFF3 )      
and I'm looking for the joke  
E5 ( RIFF3 )     
looking for the joke  
E5 ( RIFF3 )  
I'm looking for the joke with a microscope... Repeat and fade
