Verse
Climbing
Am..The down escalator
To the frigid bardo (up! up! up! up!)
Am..Rise (up! up! up! up!)
Kidnap yourself (up!)
Am..Don’t call the fuzz
Just gather the bills
AmYou got fives, tens, twenties, fifties
GHundreds, hundreds, hundreds, hundreds
Interlude
Am G…....
Verse
AmYeah I need a new body
I need a new body
GI need a bit of shape and a tone
AmYeah I need a new body
I need a nobody
GI can’t shake sleeping alone
AmYou see I have been misplaced
I have been mislaid
GLike a covetous dog that you can’t just leave in the home
AmYeah I need a new lover
I need a new buddy
GI can’t stay out too long
(Yeah the hands have gone numb)
Refrain
Am G..Just give us what we want (pana! sonic!)
AmI never deny it
No point in denying
GThe ransom and the defense
Has drained us with their expense
It’s endless
AmYeah I try not to hide it
I try not to buy it
GBut you can’t just sit on the fence
It’s true
AmAnd no I have been mispriced
I have been mispriced
GChipped and then deviced
Tagged and rinsed for lice
AmThere’s nevera warning
I needed a warning
GI try to be content
But I’m tight in the chest
Refrain
Am G..So give us what we want (necco mini nilla wafer pana sonic pana sonic)
Am G..Please give us what we want (super! super! super! super!)
G..Over 200 miles of turnpike
3000 milesof goods!
Bridge
Am..Would you like to add a protein?
Am..Would you like to ask me about my day rates?
Verse
AmI need a new body
I need a new party
GTo represents my needs
AmYeah my distance is growing
But so is the longing
GWhich leaves the in between
AmSo this is the end
Or near to the end
Let’s say goodbye to our beautiful friend
GStaggered and blind on the rack—on the mend
Let’s close the eyes of our beautiful friend
AmSo I need a new love and
I need a new body
GTo push away the end
To the water we send you
Outro
D….Dim that light in your eyes
Coming out of your eyes
People can see it
When it pierces the veil
DThe pink ones at night
When it gets too much
Otherwise too much noise
DIf you look up
Block out the periphery
The earth and trees surround you
Framing your escape
DInto the sky
Into the stars
Leaving the ground
DYou feel your feet let go
The air a bit cooler now
Thinner in the lungs
DCleaner in the mouth
And you know what they all say
D“Don’t look down”
“Don’t look down”
DBut they also always say
Selfish, by the bed:
D“Don’t Go to the light”
“Don’t Go to the light”
D“Don’t Go to the light”
“Don’t Go to the light”
DWell, Go into the light
Go into the light
DGo into the light
Go into the light…
