Holy smokes, these future Jokes
     F                             
You call me on my landline just to 
 G
blow some smoke
     C                         
And tell me that our whole life 
 Am
feels like a hoax
     F                         
Just like the lunar landing and 
         G
those talking goats

Eight billion people spinning just 
         G
like bicycle spokes
     C                    
The cinematic scope of the 
      Am
apocalypse
Continúa después del anuncio
     F                             
When it all goes to hell there

won’t be nothing left
             Dm            C
But chips and dip in mini-marts
     F

Holy smokes, these future jokes
         F                     
Found your number on a scrap of 
       G
paper in my coat
     C                       
The earth has been around for 
          Am
several billion years
           F
And all us humans think we’re 
special but
        G                   Dm
We’re nothing but the unshed tears
              C            F   
Of a distant star, never knowing 
         G
just who we are

Our masochism goes so undisguised
     G        F          C
Surprise, surprise, surprise
