["Peter Brady"]
Intro:
[C] [A#] [F] [C] x 2
(enter drums)
[C] [A#] [F] [C] x 2
[Verse]:
[C]Don't you see that people [F] will like you [G] for who you
[C]are Cause life is like a [F]sitcom, a [G]senior prom
And [D]I'm okay and you're o[F]kay, grade A, ten-four
Ro[C]ger, over and out, lis[D]ten up, check [F] it out
[Cborus]:
[C] There's something [F]ugly in[C]side of [G]you, in[C]side of [G]you
There's a [C] big empty [F]hole in[C]side of [G]you, in[C]side of [G]you
[F] There's something creepy crawling [C]on your [G]brain[C] [G]
[F] There's something in you, it's [G] red white and blue inside of you
[C] [A#] [F] [C] x4
[Verse]:
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
[Cborus]:
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
[C] [A#] [F] [C] 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.)
[Bridge]:
[C]One: [A#] You [F]act your [C]age
Two: You [A#]don't try to be [F]something you're [C]not
Three: You [A#]find out [F]in ad[C]vance
A#(pm)
What restaurant your mom and dad are going to
And go someplace [C]else
[C] [A#] [F] [C] x3 (with "Go someplace else"s)
[C] [A#] [C]
Lead riff -- played intermittently throughout, usually after the chorus
