chorus 1 :
A
it’s been one week
D
since you looked at me
A
cocked your head to the
D
side and said “i’m angry”
A
five days since you
D
laughed at me saying
A
“get that together
D
come back and see me”
A
three days since
D
the living room
A
i realized it’s all my
D
fault but couldn’t tell you
A D
yesterday you’d forgiven me
A
but it’ll still be two
D
days till i say i’m sorry

verse 1 :
A ( all the way )
hold it now and watch the
hoodwink as i make you stop think
you’ll think you’re looking at aquaman
i summon fish to the dish
although i like chalet swiss
i like the sushi cause it’s never
touched a frying pan
hot like wasabe when i bust
rhymes big like leann rimes
because i’m all about value
bert kaempfert’s got the
mad hits you try to match wits
you try to hold me but i bust through
gonna make a break and take a fake
i’d like a stinkin’ achin’ shake
i like vanilla , it’s the
finest of the flavours
gotta see the show , ’cause then you’ll
know the vertigo is gonna grow
cause it’s so dangerous
you’ll have to sign a waiver

refrain :
D E
how can i help it if i think
you’re funny when you’re mad
C#m
tryin’ hard not to
D
smile though i feel bad
D
i’m the kind of guy
E
who laughs at a funeral
C#m
can’t understand what i
D
mean? well you soon will
D E
i have a tendency to wear
my mind on my sleeve
C#m
i have a history of
D
taking off my shirt

chorus 2 :
A
it’s been one week since
D
you looked at me
A
threw your arms in the air
D
and said “you’re crazy”
A D
five days since you tackled me
A
i’ve still got the rug
D
burns on both my knees
A
it’s been three days
D
since the afternoon
A
you realized it’s not my
D
fault not a moment too soon
A D
yesterday you’d forgiven me
A
and now i sit back and
D
wait till you say you’re sorry

interlude : A – – x8

verse 2 :
A ( all the way )
chickity china the chinese chicken
you have a drum stick and
your brain stops tickin
watchin’ x – files with no lights
on we’re dans la maison
( dans la maison . . . )
i hope the smoking man’s in this one
like harrison ford i’m getting
frantic like sting i’m tantric
like snickers , guaranteed to satisfy
like kurasawa , i make mad
films; okay , i don’t make films
but if i did they’d have a samurai
gonna get a set of better
clubs gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
just so my irons aren’t
always flying off the back – swing
gonna get in tune with sailor
moon cause the cartoon has got
the boom anime babes that make
me think the wrong thing

( repeat refrain )

chorus 3 :
A
it’s been one week since
D
you looked at me
A
dropped your arms to your sides
D
and said “i’m sorry” ( hey )
A
five days since i
D
laughed at you and said
A
“you just did just what i
D
thought you were gonna do”
A D
three days since the living room
A
we realized we’re both to
D
blame but what could we do?
A D
yesterday you just smiled at me
A
cause it’ll still be two
D
days till we say we’re sorry

outro :
A ( all the way )
it’ll still be two days
till we say we’re sorry
it’ll still be two days
till we say wasabi
birchmount stadium
A ( hold )
home of the robbie
