AmWe met at the New Years Party of my vegetarian friend. I Dmsaid I was studying English, I told you I was in a band AmI asked what the band was called, I said it’s called The Burning Hell DmI said I’ve never heard of you, EI said that’s probably just as Amwell
AmJust to make conversation I told you about a dream I had in which Jean Baudrillard was rapping with Public Enemy Shouting Dm“don’t believe the hyperreal” with Flava Flav and Chuck D And I said AmI think we might have a lot in common then, possibly, Because I’m Dmalso a musicianE and also a student of hipAm-hoposophy
AmYou mentioned you used to play the clarinet in high school in the early years of the millennium when you were young And you said you’re Dmhired, the pay is negligible, and the tour starts next month You Amasked what I was working on, I said I’m writing an album of love songs I Dmlaughed and said love songs are dumbE, and I said oh yeah, wait til you hearAm these ones
[Chorus]
Pass the Cwine, fuck the government, I Dmlove you Three Amstatements overheard at once in the crowded Eroom But CI could not be sure which one had Dmcome from you So I passed you the Amwine and said yes, fuck the Egovernment, I love youAm too.
[Solo] Am Dm Am Dm Am [Verse]
AmThough neither of us are accomplished dancers we danced a little bit My vegeDmtarian friend was playing the hits of Will Smith, and we got jiggy with it AmThere on the dance floor, the living room dance floor, that’s when it happened You stole my Dmheart, I stole a kiss,E we stole someone else’s gin by Amaccident
AmAt some point we got cornered by an amateur poet neither of us knew Either he had Dmno one else to talk to or just couldn’t pick up simple social cues AmStep by step we backed away until we backed up all the way into the bathroom together We told the Dmpoet that we always go togetherE ‘cause that’s what happens when you’ve been Amdating forever
AmWe stayed in there for ages hoping the amateur poet would go, it was awkward We came Dmout and found he’d discovered someone else to bother, And Amsuddenly it was midnight and auld lang syne time and countdowns and gratuitous public making out And we started Dmshouting because everyone else was shoutingE and isn’t it fun to Amshout?
[Chorus]
Pass the Cwine, fuck the government, I Dmlove you Three Amstatements overheard at once in the crowded Eroom But CI could not be sure which one had Dmcome from you So I passed you the Amwine and said yes, fuck the Egovernment, I love you Amtoo.
