Pre>doo doo etc      Am   She opens up and pulls you in, dabs a napkin on your chin   Em   She's like an ornament on a hood, does the mambo like a piece of wood   Am   Taking you under, taking you under, for the duration      The creamy liquid of your heart the vital substance that was part   Of every beat and rhythm that has come unglued and riven   Taking you under, taking you under, beyond sensation      Em   How could you lose so many things your keys your car your diamond rings?    Am   The very things that gave you inspiration   Em   How could you get sucked up like that how could you get so fucked up   Am   And let her treat you like an aberration   Em am   It's a character, character assassination      The monkey's paw and the powdered tusks the chicken feet and the corn husk em   The spanish fly and the ginseng root the snake oil and the lotus shoot am   Ran out of magic, ran out of magic and stimulation      How could you lose yourself like that? it seemed so pure and violent   Until she hit you up for small change and devastation   How could you allow yourself to rot? now you're vacant that's your lot   Now you've got to stop this disintegration   Like a character character assassination      Intro doo doos      How could you drops so many balls? how could you blow so many calls?    And take so many falls and still keep on tripping   How could you miss so many shots? how could you write so many plots?    And wind up with a book that's less than gripping      You drop her hand like a dead leaf steal her heartbeat like a thief   Crush the bones beneath her skin the marrow and the calcium   Now you're under, now you're under investigation   For a character, character assassination      Doo doos, fade /pre>
