 :
Don't  you see that people  will like you  for who you
are  Cause life is like a sitcom,  a senior  prom
 And I'm  okay and you're okay,  grade A, ten-four
 Roger,  over and out, listen  up, check  it out
 :
 There's something ugly  inside  of you,  inside  of you
 There's a  big empty hole  inside  of you,  inside  of you
 There's something creepy crawling on  your brain
 There's something in you, it's  red white and blue inside of you
]  x4
 :
 As long as you don't have lots of zits or small tits
 Or crooked teeth then you won't be a freak, a wildebeaste
 And people won't tape signs on to your back or beat the crap
 Out of you or ignore your sorry ass, see
 :
 There's something vapid inside of you, inside of you
 There's a sweet little robot inside of you, inside of you
 So take off that silly moustache
 Don't be a baby -- there's a Pete Brady inside of you
]  x4 (with "Inside of you"s)
 Next, play a palm-muted C for about four bars. (This is the "Boy, I really
 learned a lot today" part.)
 :
One:  You act  your age
 Two: You don't  try to be something  you're not
 Three: You find  out in  advance
 What restaurant  your mom and dad are going to
 And go someplace else

 Lead riff -- played intermittently throughout, usually after the chorus
