they call her an unholy dyke and they call her a whore (oh well)

[Verse 2]
G               D                G                                D

G                  D                          G      D
drinks his coffee just as black as his skin..
Am                        C                              G           D
the man with the pack and the black hat sits in the back
Am                    C                                  G         D
his white eyes glow (like a fire burns bright in the act)

[Verse 3]
G                     D
"WHOOOW"  and the fat man comes in with little hair
G                          D               G                          D
his wife is unfaithful but he doesn't care as long as he can hold her tight at night
G                       D                    G                           D
"YEAH" and the waitress julie is a poet now, she writes her stories on a paper towel
G                       D                       G              D
to publish them someday she says she might.
Am                           C                                  G     D
and the man in the back tips his hat as he stands and he grins
Am                                   C                       G         D
the first word he says all night is 'let the show begin'

[Verse 4]
G                            D
Julie wants to have some fun so she takes a butter knife and cuts
G                                            D
her fingers off one by one to find a problem when she tries to start on the next hand
G                                D                      G
yea, and the fat man strips down the whore she cries to herself and
D                       G                                          D                  G     D
defecates on the floor, i don't think i want the second half of my bagel no more..
G                          D
the fat man started to say how he wants to kill his wife,
G                               D
as the dyke cuts off his tongue with a jagged knife.

[Bridge]
Em
and the two are making passionate love
             G                                                  G      B7
and the dark blind man thinks hes seen enough,
Em
so he takes julies pen from her right hand
             G                                              G       B7
and he stabs his eyes as according to plan,
Em
cause the man in the back simply laughs and he smiles
        G                                        G       B7
and the blood spills out on linoleum tile
Em
and the fat man starts to eat the flesh of the whore
        G                                                 G B7
yea the moods a little different than a minute before

[Outro]
G                     D
I reach down for the last cigarette in the pack,
G             D                            G
walk over and sit with the man in the back i ask him why,
D                             G*
he tips his hat and he smiles.
