This song was recorded by Garbage in 2003 and released as a b-side with the single "Run
Run", from their album Bleed Like Me, in 2005. It's really fun and easy to play, I
myself by ear. It's not your typical Garbage song but it's one of my favorites, even
it's extremely annoying.
**Listen to the song for exact timing.**

Alright!
Okay!

It's guys like you, baby
That give the boys a bad name
Keep your hands where I can see 'em

Be my fancy, boy
Come to my room
Glarin' at my thighs
Turn around that door
Woop! Woop!
Alright!
Okay!
(Verse 2)
You have a world of your own
Ba-da-ba-daaa-ohh
Such a badass (mumbles)
And I'm a (mumbles)
[Pre-chorus]
Be my fancy, boy
Come to my room
Glarin' at my thighs
Turn around that door

So head on home tonight, honey
Just be glad we didn't kill anybody
And I swear I'd never tell anybody
You were always lookin' at yourself in my MIRROR!

I'm feelin' desperate and I
Heard you were likin' me
[Pre-chorus]
Be my fancy, boy
Come to my room
Glarin' at my thighs
Turn around that door

You were always lookin' at yourself in my MIRROR!

Think you're such a rap
Think you're such a rebel

(mumbles)
Think you're such a badass

*Slight variation: she merges lyrics from both the Pre-chorus and the Chorus here, but
guitars are playing the chords from the chorus. A quick listen should clear it up easily.*
[Pre-chorus/Chorus]
Be my fancy, boy
Come to my room
Glarin' at my thighs
Turn around that door
Be my fancy, boy
Glarin' at my thighs
Turn around that door
(OUTTRO)
I'm pure platinum
Got the disc at home
Why do I feel so bad?
(mumbles....)
