 (*when you’re sliding down from  to  and then up to  and  make sure that you hit the
 E string on the 2nd fret: ,  it’ll make sense if you’ve heard the song)
 Oh, it's scrambled  eggs what he says.
 He accuses  me of treachery.
Got  the nine lives, got the wide eyes,
 Got a failing  grade in Chemistry.
 If you count  back to the balcony
 When all we saw was  the mystery.
 Of a blonde  haired boy brought his mother joy,
 With his pedigree  and family tree.
 (same pattern as above for the rest of the song)
 Oh, lay it all out on a wicker couch,
 That you wove in a loony bin.
 Cut it out, it's a second round bout.
 Not the way of a gentleman.
 Give it up, get a job,
 Take a pill and leave me be.
 He's got a synapse lapse he don't think he has,
 But it's been proven empirically.
 If they take something precious from me,
 I'm gonna take something precious from them.
 Oh now he's losing his constituency.
 We thought, "Oh, this could never happen again."
 If I take something precious from him,
 He try to take something precious from me.
 There's a battle in his head that he cannot win.
 There's a man he could never be.
 Oh no. Way to go.
 He's the mayor.
 Oh, I'm quite tired of this lunatic.
 Why must we suffer because the mayor is sick?
 He say: "All abandon from this sinking ship".
 Then he's off on another trip.
 He don't care about environment.
 He has made this a shitty place.
 My interest rate shrinks at a rapid pace
 Compounded daily on my worried face.
 If they take something precious from me,
 I'm gonna take something precious from them.
 Oh now he's losing his constituency.
 We thought, "Oh, this could never happen again."
 If I take something precious from him,
 He try to take something precious from me.
 There's a battle in his head that he cannot win.
 There's a man he could never be.
 Oh no. Way to go.
 He's the mayor.
 Oh no. Way to go.
 He's the mayor. (x2)
 You gonna hang your head and cry
 You gonna hang your head and cry
 You gonna cry (x4)
