[Intro]
Dm F Bb A (x2)
[Verse 1]
I'm Dmwriting these words like the Ffool that I am
Trying to Bbsay something good like the Aperson
But it's Dmall just a sham 'cos the Fwriter I am not
Could Bbsay anything, you'd beAlieve them
Just your DmA-typical Boy-girl-gFirl-boy androgynous
BbPlay on a publican's Adecoy
'Cos I Dmhad to drop out
'Cos the FArt School was sad and
If you bBbelieve all of that
You're a Abigger fool than Fmme
[Chorus]
CThe lyrics aren't supposed to Ammean that much
They're just a vehicle for a Flovely voice
They aren't supposed to mean that Gmuch
[Verse 2]
DmLyrics mean nothing, don't Fright any wrongs
In Bbfact I'm not having them Aon this
You Dmsay they mean nothing just Fgobbledy-gook
But just Bblook at yourself you're not cAlever enough
UndersDmtanding the truth, you are Fso out of touch
You belBbieve all of this, you can't Asee it's a spoof
UndersDmtand all the words when they Fdon't even rhyme
And I'm lBbosing the rhythm
And the wAhole thing's getting weirder and wFmeirder
[Chorus]
CThe lyrics aren't supposed to Ammean that much
They're just a vehicle for a lFovely voice
They aren't supposed to mean that Gmuch
CThe lyrics aren't supposed to Ammean that much
They're just a vehicle for a lFovely voice
They aren't supposed to mean that Gmuch
[Bridge]
CThey C/Ball beliFeve me
CIt's C/Ball so Feasy Fmnow
[Chorus]
CThe lyrics aren't supposed to Ammean that much
They're just a vehicle for a lFovely voice
They aren't supposed to mean that Gmuch
CThe lyrics aren't supposed to Ammean that much
They're just a vehicle for a lFovely voice
They aren't supposed to mean that Gmuch
[Ending]
