Verse 1(w/intro)
If the mother goes to sleep with you
will you run and tell Geraldo
If the mother bears your children without tears
without the usual cost of labor ( with F ending)
Verse 2(w/intro)
If the mother goes to bed with you
will you run and tell the neighbors
will you hide behind that get up that you wear
or will take the first ear that comes into contact with your
blade
like Peter did on the hill ( with F ending)
Bridge ( Just an E chord)
will you call her a freak?
will you call them freaks?
Verse 3(w/intro)
if the mother goes to bed with you
will you run and tell the papers
how she picked you from a line up in downtown philadelphia
with a cigarette hangin' out of your mouth and henry miller in
your back pocket(with F ending)
you little fucker (rest)
Verse 4 (w/intro)
if the mother goes to bed with you
in the bowels of the cathedral
will you render her asunder with what she really needs
or will you crash that beautiful silence with some talk about
finding yourself in your mother's arms(with F ending)
Bridge ( E chord)
will you call her a freak?
will you call them freaks?
Chorus
A B E
or will you call them gods
A B E
will you call them freaks
A B E
you know your sperm is weak
Ab A D
you never looked, so high
Ab A D
to ever find her so low
Ab A D
you did not have to go, that far
Bridge( A F E ) played 2x
Verse 5(w/intro)
now you know they're gonna come for you
and drag your silly name into the mud
if the mother bears your children without tears
and without the usual cost of labor.
Chorus
A B E
or will you call them gods
A B E
will you call them freaks
A B E
you know your sperm is weak
Ab A D
you never looked, so high
Ab A D
to ever find her so low
Ab A D
you did not have to go, that far
Ab A D
to show her you were holy
Outro
E A B (about 4x before words)
to show her you were holy
This is definitely an interesting song, especially the lyrics.
But a good choice as their
second single. The video goes kinda well with the song. Anyway
