| Am | (spoken) | |
| This is | a story about your friend and mine - |
| Who is it, who is it, who is it? |
| Am | C | |
| There you stand with your | L.A. tan |

| How does it feel to be off the wa-a-all? |
| Am | C | D | Am | |
| Well your mouthpiece squawks as you spread your lies, |
| But you can't pull strings if your hands are tie-ie-ied. |
| Well your teeth are clean, but your mind is capped, |
| You leave your smell like an alley ca-a-at. |
| Steel and glass - Steel and gla-a-ass. |
| Steel and glass - Steel and gla-a-ass. |
| Am | C | D | Am | |

| Am | C | D | Am | D | F | G | Am | |
