The Obscenity Prayer (Give It to Me) Lyrics
Suggestions for improvement are appreciated.
You can use power chord forms (where appropriate)
if the full barre form is too much.
The hover chords are accurate.
INTRO: A G F#m A
Give to me my time and money,
Give to me my milk and honey,
Give to me my self-respect,
golden chains around my neck
Give to me my super model,
corporate jet and champagne bottle
Get me out there on the town,
let me spread my wealth around
I could learn to love this life I lead
But just don't take away the things I need
I feel rosy in the pink,
so please don't make me stop and think
All those dark thoughts in my head,
seem like better left unsaid
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
(Give me, give me) (Give me, give me)
Give to me my latest fashion,
make my lover burn with passion
Give to me my charm and wit,
keep my body young and fit
Give to me my haute couture,
give the world a cancer cure
Serve my breakfast alfresco,
let the wine and liquor flow
I can search for truth some other time
But right now I just want to get what's mine
Let the gangsters rule the streets
while teachers try to make ends meet
I despise all bleedin' hearts,
I don't patronize the arts
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Right now
BRIDGE (SPOKEN):
I don't understand what it is you're tryin' to sell me
Or what it is you're tryin' to tell me
You're tryin' to get me to show some compassion
Man that's so out of fashion
Give to me my Aspen winter,
sorry 'bout the World Trade Center
I can't help the ones in need,
I got my own mouth to feed
Give to me my playboy channels,
and killer weed and sheets of flannel
Lay me down upon my bed
with pleasant dreams to fill my head
Just look at what this world is comin' to
And there ain't one damn thing that I can do
I don't have a leg to stand on,
I don't have a net to land on
I don't have the base of power,
I don't have the extra hour
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me, right now
Give to me my tax cut outsource,
build me my own private golf course
The Dixie Chicks can kiss my ass,
but I still need that backstage pass
Give to me my NASDAQ numbers,
Intel shares and E-trade blunders
Soldiers to defend my freedom
and three or four Valium if I need 'em and
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
Give it to me right now
