Verse 1
G#m   N.C. 
      I better safety pin my psyche 
 
      Before the padded walls close in 
G#m               Ebm                E 
      I watched a plane crash almost nightly 
G#m 
      I shouldn't have asked the earth to spin

G#m 
      And I gotta make sure that you're horny 
 
      The thoughts between bemused and numb 
G#m               Ebm                E 
      Infatuation lasts 'til morning

I let my senses come to me
