G G - G7 G7 - C C - D D

G G G7 G7 C C D D
I love you like kings love queens, like a gay geneticist loves designer genes
G G G7 G7 C C D D
I need you like New Orleans needs a drought, like Hitler's father needed to learn to pull out
G G G7 G7 C C D D
And I want you, yeah, like a lawyer/mathematician wants some kind of proof
G G G7 G7 C C D D C C D D G G
And I want you, yeah, like JFK wanted a car with a roof...


G G C C Em Em D D
Because love is taking that dive, then getting really comfortable and peeing in the pool
G G C C Em Em D D
And love is a real life porn, minus all the stuff that makes porn cool
G G C C Em Em D D
And love is a homeless guy searching for treasure in the middle of the rain
G G C C Em Em D D
And finding a bag of gold coins and slowly finding out they're all filled with chocolate
G G C C Em Em D D
And even though he's heart broken, he can't complain because he was hungry in the first place...


G G - G7 G7 - C C - D D


G G G7 G7 C C D D
Because I love you like Dora loves maps, like the Pope's toilet loves "holy craps"
G G G7 G7 C C D D
I need you like a voyeur needs a branch, like boys tossing salad needs a little bit of Neverland
G G G7 G7
Ranch...
C C D D G G
And I want you, yeah, like all the gothic kids that look exactly the same, never want to conform
G7 G7 C C D D C C D D N/C G G
And I want you like Anne Frank wanted nobody to read her fucking diary!

G G
"Because a diary is a collection of secret things that nobody's supposed to read,
that's the whole point of a diary. Millions of people that have breached this little girls privacy
after she was chased by Nazis - kick her while she's down..."


G7 G7 C C D D
And if we met in ten thousand BC, I was your caveman, you's my cavelady...
G G G7 G7
If we got hot - we'd start rubbin', if we got hungry - we'd go clubbin'
C C D D
There's wooly mammoths, but I will protect us - you're making me devolve to a Homo Erectus
C C D D
And if we met in 1780, I would be a white southern aristocratic plantation owner

and you were my dark-skinned servant lady... (slave)


G G G7 G7
Whenever I could get away from the Missus, I go to your shed and then I'd steal you kisses
C C D D
But let's be serious, I'd still work you full-time as a slave

There's a difference between romantic language and complete disregard for socio economic trends...
C C D D
If it was 1941, I was a Nazi, you's a Gypsy on the run - that's a little redundant
G G G7 G7 C C D D
That probably wouldn't have worked out...


C C D D G G C C Em Em D D
Because love is your favorite food for every breakfast, lunch and dinner
G G C C Em Em D D
And love is the Holocaust - if you don't die quick and you don't get thinner
G G C C Em Em D D
And love is being the owner of the company that makes rape whistles
G G C C Em Em D D
And even though you started the company with good intentions trying to reduce the rate of rape,
G G C C Em Em
now you don't want to reduce it at all, 'cause if the rape rate declines
D D G G G7 G7
you'll see an equal decline in whistle sales...
C C D D G G G7 G7
Without rapists, who's gonna buy your whistles?
C C D D G G
Yeah, love is all about... whistles
