F#      E
My veins are blue and connected
  F#           E
And every single bone in my brain is electric
F#        E
But I dig ditches like the best of 'em
F#       E
Yo trabajo duro, como en madera, ¿y eso?
F#       E
F#       E
         Como en madera, ¿y eso?

     F#       E
And even God herself has fewer plans than me
    F#         E
But she never helps me out when my scans for free though
F#        E
She grabs a stick and then she pokes it at me
F#         E
When I say nothing, I say everything
A
  Yeah when I say nothing
Ab
  I say everything

F#        E
They put me down in a lazaretto
F#     E
Born rotten, bored rotten
F#      E
Making models of people I used to know
F#      E
Out of coffee and cotton
  F#           E
And all of my illegitimate kids have begotten
    F#         E
Thrown down to the wolves, made feral for nothing
F#       E
Quarantined on the Isle of Man
  F#          E
And I'm trying to escape any way that I can, oh
A
 Any way that I can, oh
Ab
 I don't


F#    E
I have no time left, time is lost
F#     E
No time at all, throw it in a garbage can
F#        E
And I shake God's hand, I jump off
F#           E
And let her know when I can, this is how I'm gonna do it

E     F#  E
They wanna blow down the prison
E        F#  E          F#
They're lighting fires with the cash of the masses
E      F#
E      F#  E
And like the dough I don't fall down
E    F#  E          F# E
I'm so Detroit I make it rise from the ashes
