Tonart: G major
Verse 1
G
Well, I don't want to go to Borneo
C
I don't want to drink Loewe
and Breaux
D
G
I'd rather not read Ivanhoe
D
I'd rather be in old Chicago
G
Plain against the Winstead Blow
Stop in somewhere on
145th Street
and Kastner Avenue
Go into O'Malley's
and have a few beers
Watch The Pulse on a widescreen TV
Maybe pick up frats.
I don't want to take notes in a class.
C
I don't care if I fail or pass.
G
School's as bad as a Wednesday
night mass.
D
The obvious rhyme here, though,
After three semesters of higher
institution of learning,
I learned better words like didactic and
pretentious and totalitarianism.
Well, I smoke clove cigarettes
and wore black turtlenecks.
All you zombies in TV land
C
With your world controller
in your hand
G
The program schedule's got
your life planned
D
And the advertising's got you
buying their brand
G
That tube's got you impressed
D
with the sands
Through the hourglass
G
So goes your days and your lives
Don't care about the Middle East
or West
C
It doesn't matter who's least
or best
news some zest,
D
G
and just wish CNN would give it a rest.
D
G
Cause no news is good news.
I'm not gonna make
excuses in the chains,
C
gonna take my own life by the reins.
D
G
Try to keep my health on a level brain,
D
pack my axe and hop a train.
G
C
D
Maybe head east, Berlin.
Now that the Berlins have interfaced,
there's a merger and new
angle on businesses.
Making ball bearings
and toaster ovens
and stuff like that.
If stay in Columbus, Ohio,
G
you'll learn how to make fries.
C
Now some people say livin' that
I say it's tough luck
G
on the conglomerate food chain.
But in the end, I'm happy as a clam,
C
livin' in the land of Uncle Sam.
G
It's good to be an American,
D
cause it's my own right
My country tis of me.
D
G
Oh, me, oh, me
