 C          G           C          G
Piss-poor, ridin high, sunbathin' fire-side,
       C            F           Em
We're here for the porn of the sirloin,
         C                 G
Get your T-bone, let your backbone slide,
C            G
Tunnel and sky collide,
C                    F                Em
Lose friends to the air waves and the airlines.

Chorus:
                Am
I wanna make it right,
     Dm7          Bm7-5
Some future in my eyes *bright*
 E             Am
Hush- don't explain,
         Dm7           Bm7-5
When you water down my name,
E              Am
I'll be up too late,
Dm7              Bm7-5
Call me when you get,
E              Am
Better at your game,
    Dm7             Bm7-5 E
You haven't beat me yet.

The waitress
The actress
Got the skin and the bones
With a hairbrush and an air brush
She'd be white gold
She asked the piss-poor,
"Why you looking for that party in the sky?
It's just a movie about a movie, too old to die."

Chorus:
But I'm gonna make it right
The future in my eyes, bright
Hush, don't explain
When you water down my name
I'll be up too late
Call me when you get
Better at your game
You haven't beat me yet
Though my vision is straining

I'm gonna make it right
Some future in my eyes, bright
Hush, don't explain
When you water down my name
I'll be up too late
Call me when you get
Better at your game
You haven't beat me yet
