E | E/B | C#m7 | E/B | |
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else |
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like him at all |
So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin |
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all |
A | |
He gets his | courage from the can |
It makes him feel like a man |
B | |
Because he's | loving all the ladies |
E | E/B | C#m7 | E/B | |
But the ladies don't love him at | all |
'Cause when he's not drunk |
He's only stuck on himself |
And then he has the nerve |
To say he needs a decent girl |
Looking at herself but wishing she was someone else |
Because the body of the doll it don't look like hers at all |
So she straps it on, she sucks it in, she throws it up, and gives a grin |
Laughing at herself because she knows she ain't that at all |
All caught up in the trends |
Well the truth began to bend |
And the next thing you know man |
There just ain't no truth left at all |
'Cause when the pretty girl walks |
She walks so proud |
And when the pretty girl laughs |
Oh man, she laughs so loud |
E | D | |
And | if it ain't this then it's | that |

Well I'm an energetic hypothetic version of another person |
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in here |
Well I'm a superficial, systematic, music television addict |
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in |
A | |
Here comes another one, just like the other one |
B | |
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else |
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like a him |
And so he ties it up he tucks it in, he pulls it back and gives a grin |
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all |
He knows he ain't loved at all |
