G
Everybody wants to be a showman,
yeah, they always got another one
Everybody thinks they got a genius,
everybody got me on the run
A#                              A
Sometimes I think they come here
just so you can say that you can
       G
And I can't get alone in my bathroom,
I need to give myself a hand

Y'all cuh-cuh-cuh-creepin', creepin'
underneath my skin
Fuck you and your flashbulbs, snappin'
my picture again
You drank all my whiskey, you stole
all my smoke
And you're crowded all around me like
I got nowhere to go

Chorus:
                C
Eyes are gonna roll back, I'm here to kill
                A#                   A
Time for you to go, I'm-a-goin' to spill
              G
It isn't you fast train
C
I'll be the king runnin' near the wheel
A#                  D                   G
I ain't lookin' to make no deals here, no

You keep sticking to me like a prickly porcupine
You're getting your information from the grocery
checkout line
Are you through confessing of your little girl
obsession
Because I was only messing and I had a little time

Chorus:
Eyes are goin' to roll back, I'm here to kill
Time for you to go, I'm-a-going to spill
It isn't you fast train
I'll be the king runnin' near the wheel
I ain't lookin' to make no deals here, no

Eyes are gonna roll back, I'm here to kill
Time for you to go, I'm-a-goin' to spill
It isn't you fast train
I'll be the king running near the wheel
I ain't lookin' to make no deals here, no
Eyes are gonna roll back, I'm here to kill
Time for you to go, I'm-a-goin' to spill
It isn't you fast train
I'll be the king runnin' near the wheel
I ain't lookin' to make no deals here, no
