Intro: Gbm E D Gbm

Verse 1:
Gbm        E                  D
  Parasite man, what is your plan?
                  Bm             Gbm
Claim you're the highest intelligence
Gbm               E                D
  Twist with your teeth, meaty and raw
             Bm                Gbm
Tell me now, who is the savage here?
               E                  D
And if I could have a moment with you
                   Bm
I'd throw all your limbs down a laundry chute
Gbm               E                     D
  It wouldn't be cruel, just what you accrued
             Dbm
Pressure, it boils 'til smoke ensues

Chorus:
Gbm                   E
Rent is high, and the taxes due
      D                     Dbm     Db
On a floating rock, burning avenues
             Gbm          E
Where's the alien who can save us now?
       D               Dbm
Mother Nature screams, death is guaranteed
     Db            Gbm
I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah
E                    D                Dbm
Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah
     Db            Gbm
I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah
E                    D         Gbm
Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah
     Dbm
I'll say it again

Post-chorus:
Gbm                  E
Heed to the warning, feed them the potion
D                       Dbm
Wise are the tortured, trees by the ocean
Gbm                E
Keep your emotion, lead with devotion
E                    Dbm
Kill the oppressor, drunk on corruption

Verse 2:
Gbm      E          D
  Bacteria, propaganda
             Bm      D       Gbm
Lightning devices, designer drugs
             E                 D
Breeding the youth, workers to foes
          Bm                   Gbm
If anyone questions the status quo
                  E                   D
Their bunkers and war is what we work for
                 Gbm
Our feelings are numb, and our pockets poor
Gbm            E                D
  And competition, it doesn't exist
                 Dbm
They made it all up, so we don't resist

Chorus:
Gbm                   E
Rent is high, and the taxes due
      D                     Dbm    Db
On a floating rock, burning avenues
            Gbm           E
Where's the alien who can save us now?
       D                        Dbm
Mother Nature screams, death is guaranteed
     Db            Gbm
I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah
E                    D                 Gbm
Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah
     Db            Gbm
I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah
E                    D                 Gbm
Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah
     Db
I'll say it again

Kill the oppressor, drunk on corruption
