              G
I'm not that nice
    Em
I'm mean and I'm evil
F#m            Bm
Don't call me nice
G
I'm gonna eat your heart out
F#m           Bm
I've got some work to do
E                    A
Baby, I'm ready, I'm ready,
ready, ready to blow my lid off

Go fuck yourself
You heard me right
Don't call me nice again
Don't you have somewhere to be at 7:30?
Baby, I'm ready, I'm ready, ready,
ready to blow my brains out

Chorus:
    D
You die
     G     A       Bm   G
And words don't do anything
      A           Em
It's permanently night
    A            Bm   G
And I won't feel anything
      A                                  D
We'll all be laughing with you when you die
G      A       Bm  G
Words don't do anything
      A           Em
It's permanently night
    A            Bm   G
And I won't feel anything
      A                                  D F# G
We'll all be laughing with you when you die

             G  F#m
Go fuck yourself
               G
I'm mean, not nice
             Bm
You said it twice
F#            G  F#m
You said it twice
                             G
Don't you have somewhere to be at seven thirty?
Bm F# G
        I've got some work to do
F#m G
        I'm gonna eat your heart out
Bm F# G                 F#m       F#
        I heard you the first time
