Spoon The Underdog Lyrics

Intro]
G... G ~ B
C Bm D G G ~ B ~ C
C Bm D G G ~ G/F# ~ Em
Picture yourself in the living room
your pipe and slippers set out for you
I know you think that it ain't too far
But I hear the call of a lifetime ring
C ~ D ~ G
felt the need to get up for it
Oh, you cut out the middleman
get free from the middleman
horus
You got no time for the messenger,
C D G ~ B ~ C
got no regard for the thing that you don't understand,
you got no fear of the underdog,
that's why you will not survive
G C G D D G C ~ G
C Bm D G G ~ G/F# ~ Em
I want to forget how conviction fits
but can I get out from under it?
Can I gut it out of me?
It can't all be wedding cake
It can't all be boiled away
I try but I can't let go of it
I can't let go of it,
horus
'Cause you don't talk to the water boy
C D G ~ B ~ C
and there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know,
You will not back up an inch ever,
that's why you will not survive,
G C G D D G C ~ G
C Bm D G B ~ C
C Bm D G.... G ~ G/F# ~ Em
The thing that I tell you now
It may not go over well
And it may not be photo-op
in the way that I spell it out
horus
But you won't hear from the messenger,
C D G ~ B ~ C
don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand,
You got no fear of the underdog,
that's why you will not survive
G C G D D G C ~ G
C Bm D G G ~ B ~ C x2
C Bm D G G ~ B ~ C
