F Dflat Gsharp Eflat F
Dflat Gflat Dflat Eflat f
Verse I:
F Dflat I've got nothing to say, I've got nothing to do,
F Gsharp All of my neurons are functioning smoothly
Dflat Eflat F Yet still I'm a cyborg just like you.
F Dflat I'm one big myoma that thinks, My planet supports only me,
F Gsharp I've got this one big problem will I live forever?
Dflat Eflat f I've got just a short time to see.
Chorus
F Gsharp Eflat F-Eflat-F Modern man - evolutionary betrayer, Modern man - ecosystem destroyer, Modern man - destroy yourself in shame,
F Gsharp Dflat Eflat Modern man - pathetic example of earth's organic heritage.
Verse II(same as above):
When I look back and think, when I ponder and ask "why?" I see my ancestors spend with careless abandon assuming eternal supply
Solo
Chorus
F Gsharp Eflat F-Eflat-F Modern man - evolutionary betrayer Modern man - ecosystem destroyer Modern man - destroy yourself in shame
F Gsharp Dflat Eflat Modern man - patheric example of earth's organic heritage,
Dflat Eflat Just a sample of carbon-based wastage
Dflat Eflat F Just a fucking tragic epic of you and I . . .
Dflat F Dflat F Gsharp Dflat Eflat F . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (end.)
Chords:
F ---- G --- Gsharp --- Dflat --- Eflat --- F (chorus only) ---
In the solo, (b) = bend.
So there it is. The solos aren't quite right, I don't think, but they Should be pretty close. Enjoy. --Geoff.
