Verse 1:
    Bm                Gb
You know it's kind of hard
A       Bm          Em D
Just to get along today
    Bm            Gb
Our subject isn't cool
A      Bm          Em D
But he fakes it anyway
   Bm             Gb
He may not have a clue
A      Bm            Em  D
And he may not have style
    Bm            Gb
But everything he lacks
A       Bm              Em D
Well he makes up in denial so-

Chorus:
 Bm      F   Gb F

You know he really
D       Em        D
doesn't get it anyway
     A     Bm
He's gonna play the
F    Gb F Gb  Bm
field     and keep it
F   Gb F Gb  D
real     For you no
A  D    Em
way for you no way
      Bm        F
So if you don't rate
Gb   F Gb Bm    F
just o-vercompensate
Gb F     Gb   D           A
At least that you'll know you
    D      Em          D
can always go on Ricki Lake

   Bm              Gb
He needs some cool tunes
A        Bm          Em
Not just any will suffice
D        Bm              Gb
But they didn't have Ice Cube
A     Bm             Em D
So he bought Vanilla Ice
    Bm              Gb
Now cruising in his Pinto
A      Bm           Em  D
he sees homies as he pass
    Bm          Gb

A  Bm
He asked for a 13
    A    Bm      Em
but they drew a 31
        D        Bm
Friends say he's trying
