Introduction:
D D9
What was that crack I made? Swung a hammer wrapped in suede
A9 A A9 A A9 A A9 A
Like a lick from a lunatic beatnick, knock you senseless as I babble on
D D9
I strike between the lines, hissing words in serpentine
A9 A A9 A A9 A A9 A
Back----biter with an appetite, I coil and rattle, then I babble on
BRIDGE
C D A D9
Everytime I add a line, I wish I could subtract
C
Too late too take it back
D D9
Conversations in veneer, Sand'em down they're insincere
A9 A A9 A A9 A A9 A
Off guard, better check the cue card, Got ghostwriters for my babble on
D D9
So I communicate, Intending to humiliate
A9 A A9 A A9 A A9 A
On attack with a cardiac comeback, You take shelter, I take babble on
BRIDGE
E D D9 A
And if talk is cheap, the price is high
D D9 E
When I let another arrow fly
E D D9 A
Better to be seen and never heard
D D9 E
Than to babble on with every word
PLAY CHORDS FROM ALL OF VERSE
D D9
What was that crack I made? File a claim with medicaid
A9 A A9 A A9 A A9 A
All my rumors spread like tumors, tale and tattle, rant and rattle on
D D9
Ugly as the sun it is, Sold out to the slander biz
A9 A A9 A A9 A A9 A
Gotta keep the tongue in line, Even fools seems wiser off the babble on
BRIDGE
E D D9 A D D9 E
And if talk is cheap, then why the thrill in an idle tongue that fires at will?
E D D9 A D D9 A
Better to be silent and be strong, Than to let my babble babble on
A D D9 A
Than to let my babble babble on, than to babble on
