That fresh egg yeller is too damn rare
        E                         F#                 B
But the white part is perfect for slickin' down your hair

And I'm lost
        E
And I'm lost
    B                         G#m

I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
B           F#                B
I'm lost at the bottom of the world.
