Verse   
        E                    A    
Come stumble my mirth beaten worker 
      E                   A  
I?m Jezmund the family berzerker 
      E                         A  
I?m bought for the price of a flagon of rice 
E                            A     
The wind buffs the cabin You speak of your life 
                  E            A  
Or more willingly Locust the Lurker 

Verse   
  E                           A   
Confuse what you can of the ending 
       E                       A  
And revise your despise so impending 
          E                                      A  
?Cause I soak on the wrath That you didn?t quite mask 
      E                                   A  
I?m getting it clearly through alternate paths 
      E                               A  
Or mixed in with the signal you?re sending 


G A But who can unlearn all the facts that I?ve learned G E As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned G A And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue G A Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun G A All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone G A Can?t this wait ?til I?m old E A Can?t I live while I?m young?
Verse E A But no peace for Jezmund tonight E A I plug the distress tube up tight E A And watch what I say as it flutters away E A And all this emotion is kept harmless at bay E A Not to educate somebody?s fright
