[Verse 1]
Dm          C        Bb                 F
I am angry, I am ill and I'm as ugly as sin
Dm          C        Bb                 F
My irritability keeps me alive and kicking
Dm          C        Bb                 Gm
I know the meaning of life, it doesn't help me a bit
Dm          D        Bb                 F
I know beauty and I know a good thing when I see it


[Chorus]
Bb                             F
This is a song from under the floorboards
Bb                             F
This is a song from where the wall is cracked
Bb
My force of habit, I am an insect
F
I have to confess I'm proud as hell of that fact


[Verse 2]
Dm         C           Bb      F
I know the highest and the best
Dm         C           Bb      F
I accord them all due respect
Dm         C           Bb      Gm
But the brightest jewel inside of me
Dm         C           Bb       F
Glows with pleasure at my own stupidity


[Chorus]
Bb                            F
This is a song from under the floorboards
Bb                            F
This is a song from where the wall is cracked
Bb
My force of habit, I am an insect
F
I have to confess I'm proud as hell of that fact

[Verse 3]
Dm         C             Bb           F
I used to make phantoms I could later chase
Dm         C             Bb           F
Images of all that could be desired
Dm         C             Bb           Gm
Then I got tired of counting all of these blessings
Dm         C             Bb           F
And then I just got tired


[Outro]
Bb                            F
This is a song from under the floorboards
Bb                            F
This is a song from where the wall is cracked
Bb
My force of habit, I am an insect
F
I have to confess I'm proud as hell of that fact
