Verse 1:
C
I can??t smell a rat when it??s all rat
C
I can??t find one in an elevator
C
My mind doesn??t work so bad
C
But I am a poor exterminator, that??s right
C
I can??t destroy entirely
C
Or annihilate a little later
C
I can??t see the entire city
C
But I??m not a bad exterminator
Chorus:
C G F C
I??m just a shade shy of true wickedness
G F C
I??m a shade shy of truly loving it, yeah
G F C G
There are other things I??d rather be doing
F
Even nothing
D
Even nothing
C
Even nothing with you
Verse 2:
C
One day I??ll make some honest rock n roll
C
Full of handclaps and gang vocals
C
I??m gonna get all the children involved
C
We??re gonna get lost on all you locals
Chorus:
C G F C
We??ll be a shade shy of true wickedness
G F C
We??ll be a shade shy of truly loving this, yeah
G F C G
There are other things we??ll rather be doing, sure
F
Even nothing
D
Even nothing
C
Even nothing with you
Bridge:
D
We??ll load out through the snow through
F2
Small groups of people smoking
C
Hey, get that kick drum loaded
G D
Into the backseat folded down
We??ll go virtually unnoticed
F2 C
What??s gripping the city ain??t hitting the town
Chorus:
C G F C
We??ll be a shade shy of true wickedness
G F C
We??ll be a shade shy of truly loving this, yeah
G F C
There are other things that we??ll surely miss
Bridge:
D
We??ll load out through the snow through
F2
Small groups of people smoking
C
Hey, get that kick drum loaded
G D
Into the backseat folded down
We??ll go perfectly unnoticed
F2 C
What??s gripping the city ain??t hitting the town
