Chorus:
A#   G#
Bad, wicked world
F#   A#
Bad, wicked world
D#        C#                F#
They are about dressed to deceive
F#           B           G#
Conquistadors that have been sent
A#   G#
Bad, wicked world
F#   A#
Bad, wicked world
D#            C#                F#
Some sell him out, some won't believe
F#       B                G#
An architect named David Vincent

A#                      G#
A man too long without sleep
F#                        A#
He took a wrong turn and people just laughed
D#                  C#
A ship that is not there
C#                   F#
But he knows that it was
F#                     B
It made a light and a buzz
B                   G#
He's really hurt because
G#
People don't care

A#                   G#
People think he's a creep
F#                    A#
He will not stop, he keeps on talking
D#                C#
Just a tie and a suit
C#                 F#
He's a lonely persuader
F#                  B
First-throwing crusader
B          G#
Against invaders
G#
Won't be mute

Chorus:
Bad wicked world
Bad wicked world
Some sell him out, some won't believe
An architect named David Vincent
Bad wicked world
Bad wicked world
They are about dressed to deceive
Conquistadores that have been sent

About once a week
Another story is leaked and he's on it
Just a suit and a tie
Will it ever end
He hasn't got a friend
Pinkies that won't bend
He really must try

Chorus:
Bad wicked world
Bad wicked world
Some sell him out, some won't believe
Architect David Vincent
