Em C

[Verse]
Em              C
This is hell in paradise
Em              C
We're all asleep or paralyzed
Em              C
Why are we scared to verbalize
Em              C
Our multicolor dreams?

Em              C
When will we come to realize
Em              C
We're all stoned or pacified
Em              C
While the boogie men organize
Em              C
Their multilevel schemes?

[Chorus]
C                  Em
Underqualified for love
C                  Em
Overqualified for life
Fm                 Em
Sticking our heads in slime
Fm                 Em
Thinking we're in our prime

[Verse]
Em              C
Mesmerized by mythology
Em              C
Hypnotized by ideology
Em              C
Antagonized by reality
Em              C
Vandalized by insanity
Em              C
Desensitized by fraternity
Em              C
Sanitized by policy
Em              C
Jeopardized by lunacy

[Bridge]
Em              C
Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh....
Em              C
This is hell!
Em              C
Penalized by apathy
Em              C
And living in the world of fantasy
Em              C
Dancing on hot coal, waiting for the last call
Em              C
It's adam's ball, eve's call

Em              C
Wake up, shake up, check out, work out, speak out
Em              C
Reach out, it's time to, time to, time to
Em              C
To, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to

[Chorus]
C                  Em
This is hell in paradise
C                  Em
None of us wish to recognize
C                  Em
But do we want them to materialize
C                  Em
An endangered species?

C                  Em
(exorcise institution)
C                  Em
(exercise intuition)
Fm                   Em
Mobilize transition
Fm                   Em
With inspiration for life

[Outro]
