Eighties people dancing, oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, always get it right
I'd listen but I can't tonight, I can't tonight, I can't tonight
Well it's something that you Do to get it right
End up reviled for it, yeah that's the thanks I get
[Chorus 1] (see chord definition above for different shapes)
I don't understand
Your fucked-up system, this sinister city
Try to sell the water, try to sell the air
Try to sell your daughter, try to sell her hair
We all want to watch the fight, is it on Sunday?
Hide in a hole with a gun in your hand in front of someone you want dead
I guess, hiding in your suit
[Solo]
I did not know that, they're bringing me back to my past
I got my head in my hand, I got my head in my-, I- I got my head in my hand
I got my head in-, I got my head in-, it's just something that you Do to get it right
End up reviled for it, yeah that's the thanks I get
[Chorus 2] (see chord definition above for different shapes)
Jail, that's what you get
Stepping to the system, profiting from war
Fighting as the victim, always wanting more
Trying to trick your brothers, get them to fight it for ya
I cannot believe my eyes
Darling I can tell you lies
Coast to coast, L.. to Chicago
I don't know geography all that well
Yeahhh, yeah
Defying Western logic, even if it shows you're wrong
I guess that's a classic, been with us all along
