[Verse 1]
DGet the young scientists, Ctell them "come quick"
I Gmust be the first man that's Dever seen this
DLines on my face, my Cteeth are not white
My Geyes do not work and my Dlegs don't move right
[Chorus]
GCall the Smithsonian I Cmade a dGiscovery
GLife ain't forever and lunch isn't Dfree
GLoved ones will B7break your heart wCith or withoGut you
CTurns out we Gdon't get to Dknow everyGthing

[Verse 2]
DI wonder if Romeo Cever got scared
GTaken but shaken, Dunprepared
DUnder the balcony, Cunder the trees
GFully unknowing of Dwhere this would lead
DWhat if we marry or Cgive up the ghost?
GOr we abandon Dthose we love most?
DWhat if you carry Cme and lay me down
GOnce you get used to me Dbeing around?
[Chorus]
GCall the Smithsonian I Cmade a dGiscovery
GLife ain't forever and lunch isn't Dfree
GLoved ones will B7break your heart wCith or withoGut you
CTurns out we Gdon't get to Dknow everyGthing

[Verse 3]
DMy bedroom's an office, Cmy kitchen's a car
GMy life is a joke, Dmy bathroom's a bar
DI go there a lot, Cmore than I should
GI know I should stop but it Dfeels too damn good
[Chorus]
GCall the Smithsonian I Cmade a dGiscovery
GLife ain't forever and lunch isn't Dfree
GLoved ones will B7break your heart wCith or withoGut you
CTurns out we Gdon't get to Dknow everyGthing
