fig.1 
You paint your own T.V. on the wall 
fig.1 
Carve out insects to feed us all 
fig.1                                          A5 
Lights flash by and the fast world echoes your    thoughts 
      E5         D5         C5        B5 
Your compass led you to the edge of a lake 
E5                D5        C5           B5 
You'll singe your nuts down there if you take 
E5         D5            C5           B5 
Such bad advice from the love gods of hate 
           A5  
You'll get    cold 
                        E5   D5 
You get burned, you get cold 
C5      B5          E5       D5           
You get burned, you get cold 
C5      B5          E5      D5 
You get burned, you get cold 
C5      B5          A5 
You get burned, you get cold 
       E5          D5         C5         B5 
On the plush green rug in the lime green light 
E5        D5           C5       B5 
Eyes like white stones in black light 
  E5          D5   C5             B5 
I promise you everything that you like 
  A5 
I go  
E5 D5   C5   B5

fig.1 
Gloss assails us, then dims 
fig.1 
Comic book nights, L.A. grim 
fig.1                                        A5 
The Hollywood martians, lucky stiffs, fucking   win 
    E5             D5              C5             B5 
You told me enough times you can't give me enough rope 
   E5          D5           C5           B5 
To hang myself one time but I can always hope 
         E5         D5      C5     B5        A5 
You come down on me so hard that I choke and go 
                        E5   D5 
You get burned, you get cold 
C5      B5          E5  D5 
You get burned, you get cold 
C5      B5          E5  D5 
You get burned, you get cold 
C5      B5          A5 
You get burned, you get cold 
    E5           D5        C5       B5 
Meanwhile I feed you boric acid and air 
E5           D5          C5       B5 
Lemon drops, snow cream, speckled eggs 
    E5          D5           C5            B5 
The sweat seeps in through a crack in your head 
        A5 
And you go  
E5 D5   C5   B5
