Verse/Chorus:
 E Eadd4  Breaking the signal, so it's totally unreadable
 E Eadd4  Drinking the dregs, eating the utterly inedible
 E Eadd4  We do what we do
 E B      All for you
 C E      All dressed up, black hat and white cane
 C B      Slowly circling the drain
 D C E    Ready for the future
 D C B    Ready for the world about to come

 E C x4 

 E Eadd4  Shooting the sequel before the treatment's even finished
 E Eadd4  Sanding numbers off the monojects
 E Eadd4  As our slight returns diminish
 E Eadd4  We are what we are
 E B      Get in the goddamn car
 C E      Smiling faces flawlessly rehearsed
 C        We are sleek and beautiful
 B        We are cursed
 D C E    Ready for the future
 D C B    Ready for the world about to come
