				"Vicious"

[Inspired by Andy Warhol, who told Lou Reed "I think you should write a
 song called 'Vicious'."]

	Ohh, baby you're so vicious

Verse 2:

	Vicious

	A
	When I watch you come
	G               D   C G  D
	                / / / /  /
	I just want to run   far away
	A
	You're not the kind of person
	G                      D   C    D

	Em    F#m              G
	When I see you comin' down the street
	   Em           F#m         G
	I step on your hands and I mangle your feet
	       Em              F#m            G     A
	You're not the kind of person that I wanna meet
	                     D
	Oh, baby, you're so vicious

	[Guitar solo over main riff]

	(You're just so vicious)

[repeat verse 1]

Verse 3:

	Vicious
	Hey, why don't you swallow razor blades
	You must think I'm some kinda gay blade
	                     D   C G  D
	                     / / / /  /
	But baby, you're so vicious

Chorus 2:

	When I watch you comin'
	I just have to run
	You're not good and you certainly aren't very much fun
	When I see you walkin' down the street
	I step on your hand and I mangle your feet
	You're not the kind of person that I even wanna meet
	'Cause you're so vicious

Coda [repeat main riff to fade]:

	Vicious
	Vicious...
