^CIt's hard to be living ^Fmaj7You gotta play the cards you were given ^AmYou think it's simple, but it goddam* isn't ^GIt's tougher now than breaking out of Shawshank prison ^CAnd as you're hittin your prime ^Fmaj7People say you been committing a crime ^AmBut I won't quit till I'm home ^GI'll chip the limestone a bit at a time C slap mute Wait! I'm a pale ass pale ^Fmaj7Middle-class straight white male ^AmI won't have an alibi the day I fail ^GCause if I ever went to jail, Mom would pay my bail ^CIn a (boom-boom) heartbeat ^Fmaj7Mom and Dad have given me a lot more than a p^Amat on the back ^AmAnd I gotta thank 'em for loving me From the mom^Gent I was strapped in a Volvo car seat ^CWhen I needed a pep talk ^Fmaj7I couldn't remember to wreck shop ^AmWriter's block, staring at my laptop desktop ^GOr sleeping in my rental in a turnpike rest stop ^CShi* in storage, living from a suitcase ^Fmaj7Thinking "this is how a silver spoon tastes'" ^AmCause you can make a dream possible ^GBut it'll never be easy, no matter what you chase ^CIf you wanna poke fun then do so ^Fmaj7I'll do it for you, it's no crime ^AmI'm like if the dude from Juno ^GGrew a Jewfro and liked to rhyme (OOoooooohhh!!!) ^CSo tell me that I'm not a rapper ^Fmaj7Tell Rudolph he can't pull sleighs ^AmTell pluto it's not a planet ^GAnd he'll probably keep spinning in the same old way ^COn and on, every day ^Fmaj7Right around the sun, wanna feel the rays ^AmYou do it 'cause you love it like nothing else in the universe ^GAnd f*** it, it's embedded in your DNA
