:

Don't you see that people will like you for who you

are Cause life is like a sitcom, a senior prom

And I'm okay and you're okay, grade A, ten-four

Roger, over and out, listen up, check it out

:

There's something ugly inside of you, inside of you

There's a big empty hole inside of you, inside of you

There's something creepy crawling on your brain

There's something in you, it's red white and blue inside of you

x4

:

As long as you don't have lots of zits or small tits

Or crooked teeth then you won't be a freak, a wildebeaste

And people won't tape signs on to your back or beat the crap

Out of you or ignore your sorry ass, see

:

There's something vapid inside of you, inside of you

There's a sweet little robot inside of you, inside of you

So take off that silly moustache

Don't be a baby -- there's a Pete Brady inside of you

x4 (with "Inside of you"s)

Next, play a palm-muted C for about four bars. (This is the "Boy, I really

learned a lot today" part.)

:

One: You act your age

Two: You don't try to be something you're not

Three: You find out in advance

A#(pm)

What restaurant your mom and dad are going to

And go someplace else

x3 (with "Go someplace else"s)

Lead riff -- played intermittently throughout, usually after the chorus
