I'm friends with the
Bm
monster A
that's under my G
bedGet along with the
Bm
voices A
inside of my G
headYou're tryin' to
Bm
save me, A
stop holdin' your G
breathAnd you think I'm
Bm
crazy, A
yeah, you think I'm G
crazy[Zwrotka 1]
I wanted the
Bm
fame but not the cover A
of NewsweekOh well
G
, guess beggars can't be chooseyWanted to re
Bm
ceive attention A
for my musicWanted to be
G
left alone in public, excuse meFor wantin' my
Bm
cake, and eat it tooA
, and wantin' it both waysFame
G
made me a balloon 'cause my ego inflatedWhen I
Bm
blew, see, but it was A
confusing'Cause all I wanted to
G
do's be the Bruce Lee of loose leafA
Bm
bused ink,A
used it as a tool when I G
blew steamWhoo! Hit the lottery, ooh-wee
But
Bm
with what I gave upA
to get it was bittersweetIt was like
G
winnin' a used minkIronic 'cause I
Bm
think I'm gettin' so hugeA
I need a shrinkI'm beginnin' to
G
lose sleep: one sheep, two sheepGoin' coo-coo
Bm
and kooky as Kool KeithA
But I'm actually weirder than
G
you think, 'cause I'm—[Refren]

Now, I ain't much of a
Bm
poetBut I know
A
somebody once told me to seize the G
momentAnd don't squander it 'cause you never know when it
Bm
allCould be over to
A
morrow, so I keep conjurin'G
Sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn fromBm
Yeah, ponderin'll A
do you wondersNo wonder you're
G
losin' your mind, the way it wandersYodel-odel-ay-
Bm
hee-hoo!A
I think it went wanderin' off down G
yonderAnd stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderen
Bm
'Cause I need an

interventionistTo inter
G
vene between me and this monsterAnd save me from
Bm
myself and A
all this conflict'Cause the very

I'd get on a Dre trackGive every
