lyrics

[C G] [Am Em] Dm G
Don't give me gratification for saying hello. (hello hello, nice to meet ya)
It's all a muse of devisive incentives y'know. (oh no, oh no, that ain't good) So let's
[F G] [C Am] D G
have an intelligent conversation about every single way the world is flawed. And let's
get to our own deeper understanding of everything around.
[C G] [Am Am7] D G
You see right through the scheming; I'm taking note. So here's to one more in the boat.
[C G] [Am Em] Dm G
[brief instrumental]
I value education over school (oh snap, but you're stuck in it anyways)
But I have to admit that economics is kindof cool (opportunity cost is the bomb, yo) So
[F G] [C Am] D G
let's have a meaningful conversation about ethics/morals/right and wrong. Let's
tune right into our understanding of everything around.
[C G] [Am Am7] D G
You see the bigger picture; I'm taking note. So here's to one more mind afloat.
