Intro: F G# D# F D# F
F D# F C C# D# F D# F C C# D#
Lascivious,
F D# F C C# D# C# G# A# C
it's all that I can think of as I drag my feet, searching like diogenes,
F D# F C C# D# F D# F C C# D#
dangerous,
F D# F C C# D# C# G# A# C
the adjectives of the decade and of your alluring intricacies,
F G# D#
Yes, I see your green screen mentality,
F D# F
and I know it's shared by many more
F G# D#
and I know I shouldn't but it's too much to ignore,
G# A# C
an emotion I deplore.
C# D# F
Every time I see you, I just want to do it,
C# A# D# F
I can clench my fist right through it, but I just want to get off!
(verse rhythm)
(with verse rhythm)
Rectilinear, this direction we've been heading, never realizing we are
on a runaway machine,
Angular, the momentum that does turn us one step further on our ladder,
one more turn toward the east.
I realize your green screen mentality, and I know it's shared by many
more.
I know it's quite impossible, but I'm damned to find a way to revolve
the other way.
(with chorus rhythm)
Every time I scrutinize, I just say, "Screw it",
we're on a ride down a blind conduit and I just want to get off!
F
Aaaaahhh.....
