On a steady diet of,
Db
Soda pop and Ritalin.

Noone ever died for my,
Gb5
Sins in hell,
'Sfar as I can tell.

Least the ones I got away with.
[Chorus (1)]

Get my television fix,
Bbm
Sitting on my crucifix.
Gb5
The living room or my private womb,
Ab5
While the Moms and Brads are away,
Db
To fall in love and fall in debt.
Bbm
To alcohol and cigarettes,
Gb5
And Mary Jane,
To keep me insane,
Ab5
Doing someone else's cocaine.
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Gb5 Ab5
And there's nothing wrong with me.

[Verse 1 (1)]
---------------------
Ab5 C#5
At the center of the Earth,
C5
In the parking lot,
A#5 Ab5
Of the seven eleven whereI was taught,
Gb5 Ab5
The motto was just a lie.
C#5
It says: ''Home is where your heart is'',
C5
But what a shame.

Lost children with dirty faces.
Bb5 Ab5
Today, noone really seems tocare.
[Verse 2 (2)]
---------------------
Gb5 C#5
I read the graffiti,
C5
In the bathroom stall,
A#5 Ab5
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall.
Gb5 Ab5
And so it seemed to confess.
C#5
It didn't say much,
C5
But it only confirmed,
A#5 Ab5
That the center of the Earth is the end of the world.
Gb5 Ab5
And I could really care less.
[Chorus (4)]

City of the dead,
