verse 1:  

      E                             G            A    B 
Yeah, she's built for speed like a black castrum doloris 
 E                             G              A    B 
Good for the needy, like Nietzsche, Freud and Horace 
         E                             G           A    B 
But I'm skin, flint, broke, making no money, making jokes 
    C               D       B 
But baby, I won't joke with you 


verse 2:  

E                          G      A    B 
My feet are burning like a Roman hypocaust 
        E                                    G               A  B 
But the Romans are gone, they changed their name because they lost 
E                          G         A    B 
She writes letters like a Jack Chick comic 
       C                            D        B 
Just a bunch of propaganda, make my fingers histrionic  


Break 1: (riffs *1 and **2 at bottom for this part) 

         E    G      A    B 
Like this 
        E    G      A    B 
And this 


verse 3:  

        E                      G            A    B 
I mean, she's my baby but she makes me get avuncular 
    E                                   G              A      B 
And when my monkey is jumping I got no time for making up for her 
E                                   G                          A    B 
I fantasize about the hospital The army, asylum, confinement, in prison 
E                          G               A    B 
Any place where there's a time to clear my vision 


Break 2:  

***riff 3 at bottom 


Chorus 1:  

(intro riff) 
            I spit it out,  
(intro riff) 
            Whatever's in my mouth 
(intro riff) 
            Just like that Black Bat Licorice  
C C C C D D B 
            Yeah, that Black Bat Licorice 
(intro riff) 
            That Black Bat Licorice 
(intro riff) 
            That Black Bat Licorice,  
(intro riff) 
            Yeah! 
C C C C D D B 


E   G    A    B 
E   G    A    B 

verse 4:  

       (no chord)  
I wanna cut out my tongue and let you hold onto it for me 
       (no chord)                                             (strum behind nut) 
Cause without my skull to amplify my sounds it might get boring.... 
E    G    A    B 
E    G    A    B 
             E                         G            A    B 
I've got the wit of the stickers with atomic clock precision 
         E                            G         A    B               (riff *1 and **2) 
And the phases of the moon directing all of my decisions like this... 


Bridge: play riff *1 and riff **2 during this part 


Women need to know, I play dumb like Columbo 

And get my feelings hurt and move to NY like I'm Dumbo 

Don't you want to lose the part of the brain that has opinions? 

To not even know what you are doing, or care about yourself or your species in the billions 

play riff ***3 


Chorus 2:  

(intro riff) 
            Yeah I have to spit it out,  
(intro riff) 
            Oh, whatever's in my mouth, 
(intro riff) 
            Oh, I have to spit it out,  
(intro riff) 
            Behave yourself 
C C C C D D B 
            Just like that Black Bat Licorice 
(intro riff) 
            That Black Bat Licorice 
(intro riff)  
            That Black Bat Licorice,  
(intro riff) 
That Black Bat Licorice, I never liked it, I never will 
    C        D          B 
Now state the same damn thing with the violin! 


Instrumental Break 3: (violin solo over E G A B verse chords 3 times then the C D B once) 


Outro: 

'...Whatever you feed me, I feed you right back, but it will do no good' 


(end)
