Chorus
G Em Bm A
Haven't you heard? I am a flightless bird.
F#m Bm G Bm G
I am a liar, feeding facts to a false fire.
G Em Bm A F#m
If pathos is borne, borne out of bullshit—-in formal attire,
Bm G Bm G
I'll score you a string ensemble.
I saw my son at seventeen,
The shutters made projections on his naked frame.
Now at twenty-five,
He simply cannot stay away from the ketamine.
With makeup on his sores,
He spends an hour a day composing little eulogies.
Sometimes he sends me letters,
But it's mostly garbled phrases and apologies.
But haven't you heard? I am a flightless bird.
I am a liar, feeding facts to a false fire.
If pathos is borne, borne out of bullshit—-In formal attire,
Cue the Bulgarian men's choir.
