A E Amputating A E As he's waiting A E Amputating C#m C# He's unresponsive cause you're irresponsible Outro - Glenn W. Turner (alternate between A and E "And give you instant belief, cause you don't have instant belief You've been hooked, you've been crooked You've been lied to so many times, that you're suspicious-minded And when the right thing comes along, you don't believe in it When I'm coming in knocking on the front door You're out the back door looking for four leaf clovers And when you find it, you think somebody planted it there to fool you 'What's the angle?' You look for an excuse"
