[Verse]
WAhen your head starts craning back
B7And your breath comes short and fast
DmThe music of the spheres start to bounce and sing
Am (Mute)
That's when you know you're swinging
AWhen your eyes roll back into your head
B7And the sap of the trees on your fingers have bled
DmSwooning to the charms of Mephisto's waltz
Am (Mute)
That's when you know you've got some schmaltz
[Instrumental]
A B7 Dm Am (Mute)
[Verse] (Aggressively)
When you've Dmgot the evil eye and unconsciously growl
Your hAmands start shaking and you crouch and prowl
These tBm7erryifing symptoms are a sure-fire sign
Am N.C.
That you're pimpin baby and your feeling fine
AWhen you make love to whomever you please
B7And a bullet to the head feels like a soft warm breeze
Dm7Red suit green suit they're all there scheming
AmThat
[Outro]
