 Am                                           F                                                   C 
      Thirty licks with a belt  same old tricks on myself.
                                       Dm 
And I wonder: Does everyone else live this way?
 Am                                   F                                           C 
      A succession of tests, a triumphant success,
                                               Dm 
Each time I'm still intact, at the end of the day.

 Am                                         F                                               C 
      Thirty drops in a glass, keep my temper and pass
                                                     Dm 
With my breath held. You bastards, you've lucked out again!
 Am                                         F 
      It's not really so bad. There's still mom, there's still
   C                                     Dm 
Damage to do before they wrest the axe from my hands.
 Am                                     F                                       C 
      It's no mystery: you should obviously go,
       Dm 
Before I break everything.
 Am                                                 F                                             C 
      You're always telling me that you're dying to know 
                       Dm 
But you're not really listening.
   F                                     Am                                       E 
How do I manage to station myself in harm's way,
                                                   F 
And only get hit with a ticket for loitering
   Am                                       E 
That I have no way to pay? And no strength to argue.
         F                                       Am                                       E 
My personal demons can scheme with professional care...
Oh, god, they're after me!
 F                                                 Am 
If I could shut them out just for a second,
I could stop this catastrophe.

 Am                                     F 
      Thirty day guarantee,
                                                     C 
But they can't have meant me.
                                     Dm 
After all, I was born to a child-proof world.
 Am                                               F 
      No sharp corners, or glass,
                                         C 
Small objects, or plastic bags.
                                       Dm 
Please, these are death to a delicate girl.
 Am                                       F                                         C 
      It's no mystery - you should obviously know
             Dm 
That I'll destroy everything.
 Am                                             F                                             C 
      So don't go telling me that you're dying to know
                             Dm 
'Cause you?ll get what you're asking for.
   F                                           Am                                       E 
And I still manage to station myself in harm's way,
                                                   F 
And only get hit with a ticket for loitering,
     Am                                       E 
Stating I came the wrong day.
   F                                               Am                                               E 
Now all the demons are screaming, their wages aren't fair.
I've left a secret kept.
 Am     F     C     Dm 
                                        I could be decent yet!
 Am     F     C     Dm 
                                        Be magnificent!
 Am     F     C     Dm 
                                        I could be president...
