Intro
G....Cadd....D..2x
Em.......G........Em.........C
i've been all around the world
i've been a new sensation
but it doesn't really matter in this ge-generation
the sophmore slump is an uphill battle
and someone said they knew my scene
cause they need a new song like a new religion
music for the television
i can't do the long division
someone do the math
'fore the record label puts me on the shelf up in the freezer
gotta find another way to live the life of leisure
Em....G....Em
so i drop my top
mix and i mingle
Am
is everybody ready for the single
and it goes
G.....Cadd9.....Dsus2
ha la la la love
now listen closely to the verse i lay
ha la la la love
it's all about the wordplay
ha la la la love
the wonderful thing it does
Em.......D/F#......C
because because i am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
yea the mr. a to z they say i'm all about the wordplay
Em.......G........Em.........C
And it's time to get ill i got your remedy
for those who don't remember me well let me introduce you to my style
i try to keep a jumble and the lyrics never mumble when the music's making people tongue-tied
you want a new song like a new religion
music for the television
i can't do the long division
someone do the math
for the people write me off like i'm a one hit wonder
gotta find another way to keep from going under
Em....G....Em
pull out the stops
got your attention
Am
i guess it's time again for me to mention the wordplay

Cadd9...........................................
oh, the bridge across the stream of consciousness
..........................Asus4...................................
it always seems to be a flowing but i don't know which way my brain is going
G.....................................Dsus2......................Cadd9........
oh the remedy, the time it kicks, the melodies inside me and i'm curving till i'm running
..........
out of air
.........Asus4..........................................Cadd9
are you prepared to take a dive into the deep end of my head
are you listening to a single word i've said
[Play the intro arp.]

ah la la love
we're sticking to the wordplay
ah la la la love
the wonderful thing it does
