SONG
TITLE: What I Get
TIME SIGNATURE: 6/8
KEY: D
I deserve every bit of what I get
I deserve every bit of what I get
and I feel freer and
safer than ever before
without any plastic wrap or duct tape covering my door
and I see you living in the germ-free quarantine of war
and the fumes they just knock me to the floor
You burn your bridges down to the ground
I detonate mine and watch them come tumbling down
And you kill only the slowest people around
And I take thousands of innocent lives and I feel proud
Now I deserve every
bit of what I get
I deserve every bit of what I get
'cause I am neurotically, despotically taking without regret
now I deserve every bit of what I get
you fly your airplane
down into the sea
while mine cruises on to Washington DC
you kill all the jellyfish in a three-mile vicinity
and I take down federal buildings with me
but you're still a beautiful, beautiful shining star
and I'm still a beautiful, beautiful nothing at all
but somehow, like napalm, I keep burning you down
and now I wish that I never came around
yeah, now I wish that I never came around
