C#5
All day long
A5
I felt like
C#5 A5 G#5
Smashing my head through a clear glass window
C#5
But instead
A5
I went out
C#5 A5 G#5
And smashed up a phone booth around the corner
C# F#
I never had the chance to choose my own parents
C# G#
I never knew why I should be stuck with mine
C# Bb
Mommy's always trying not to eat
G# C#
And Daddy's always smelling like he's pickled in booze
C# F
I never had the chance to choose my own name
F# D#
I never knew why I should be stuck with mine
C# Bb
Mommy's always talking about family pride
G# C#
And Daddy's always hiding from his weekend bride
C#5
All day long
A5
I felt like
C#5 A5 G#5
Smashing my head through a clear glass window
C#5
But instead
A5
I went out
C#5 A5 G#5
And smashed up a station wagon around the corner
C# F#
I looked in the mirror and told myself
C# G#
"At least I don't look like them, at least"
C# Bb
Mommy's like a filmstar in a distorted mirror
G# C#
Daddy's like a guy who lost his stomach in the war
C# F
I went to shake hands with the President in Miami
F# D#
I went to a rock show to see Mick Jagger
C# G# Bbm F#
You'll never believe it, the surprise of my life
D# C#
They had paint on their faces just like my Mommy
D# F# C#
Daddy, I'd rather have you dead than crazy
Bbm F#
Trying to talk to them is like eating chicken dinner when you're
G#
angry
Bbm F#
Trying to get their love is like watching ice cream melt when
G#
you're hungry
Bbm G#
They gave me a watch that's guaranteed not to break
F# Bbm G# C#
But my Mommy and Daddy broke up last fall
D# F# C#
Mommy, I'd rather have you dead than crazy
C#5
All day long
A5
I felt like
C#5 A5 G#5
Smashing my head through a clear glass window
C#5
But instead
A5
I went out
C#5 A5 G#5
And smashed up a church around the corner
