I'm the son of rage and love

The bible of none-of-the-above

On a steady diet of

Soda pop and Ritalin
Bb
No one ever died for my sins
F#
In hell, far as I can tell
Ab
At least the ones I got away with

[Estribillo]

        F#                    Ab
And there's nothing wrong with me
        F#                    Ab
This is how I'm supposed to be
       F#              Ab
In a land of make-believe

I don't believe in me

To alcohol and cigarettes

And Mary-Jane, to keep me insane

Doing someone else's cocaine

And there's nothing wrong with me
        F#                    Ab
This is how I'm supposed to be

At the center of the Earth in the parking lot
       Bb                 Ab
Of the Seven-Eleven where I was taught
F#                    Ab
The motto was just a lie
         C#                              Ab
It says home is where your heart is, but what a shame
       Bb                 Ab
Cuz' everyone's heart doesn't beat the same

I read the graffiti on the bathroom stall
       Bb                       Ab
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall
F#                    Ab
And so it seemed to confess
     C#                        Ab
It didn't say much but it only confirmed

         Bb                         Ab
That the center of the Earth is the end of the world
F#                    Ab
And I can really care less
