A [G5]grizzly [C5]scene on my [D5]electron [C5]beam
Told a [C5]story [D5]about human [D5]rights
So [G5]all of Kings [C5]horses and [D5]all of Kings [C5]men
Had a [C5]riot for two [D5]days and [D5]nights
Well, the [G5]city ex[C5]ploded but the [D5]gates wouldn't [C5]open
So the [C5]company [D5]asked him to [D5]quit
Now [G5]every[C5]body's [D5]equal[C5]
[C5]just don't [D5]measure [G5]it
[G5] [C5] [D5] [C5] [C5] [D5] [G5]

Well [G5]Hanson [C5]did it to [D5]Hester[C5]
And [C5]Mark David [D5]did it to [D5]John
and [G5]maybe Jack [C5]did it to [D5]Marilyn[C5]
But he [C5]did it to [D5]South Viet[D5]nam
For [G5]beau[C5]ty and [D5]glory[C5]
For [C5]money, [D5]love and [D5]country
Now [G5]every[C5]body's [D5]doing [C5]it
[C5]Don't do [D5]that to [G5]me
[G5] [C5] [D5] [C5] [C5] [D5] [G5]

A [G5]bitter de[C5]bate and a [D5]feminine [C5]fate
Fly in [C5]tandem like [D5]two precious [D5]?blades?
A [G5]farmer gets [C5]warmer its the [D5]latter that [C5]matters
[C5]Except on the [D5]nation's air[D5]waves
And [G5]custodians of [C5]public o[D5]pinion stay [C5]back
at the de[C5]bate and dis[D5]cuss civil [D5]rights
Lay [G5]hands [C5]off her [D5]body[C5]
Its [C5]not your [D5]fucking [G5]right
[G5] [C5] [D5] [C5] [C5] [D5] [G5]

Well [G5]I don't know [C5]what stopped [D5]Jesus Christ[C5]
From turning [C5]every hungry [D5]stone into [D5]bread
And [G5]I don't re[C5]member how [D5]Moses re[C5]acted
When the [C5]innocent first [D5]born sons lay [D5]dead
Well [G5]I guess God was a [C5]lot more de[D5]monstrative [C5]back
When He flam[C5]boyantly [D5]parted the [D5]sea
Now [G5]every[C5]body's [D5]pray[C5]ing
[C5]Don't [D5]prey on [G5]me
Said [G5]every[C5]body's [D5]pray[C5]ing
[C5]Don't [D5]prey on [G5]me
[G5] [C5] [D5] [C5] [C5] [D5] [G5]
