verse ( this is played in both verses )
Dm
these are the results of a thousand electric volts
Gm
a neck with bolts , “nurse we’re losin him , check the pulse!”
Dm
a kid who refused to respect adults
Gm
wore spectacles with taped frames and a freckled nose
Dm
a corny lookin white boy , scrawny and always ornery
Gm
cause i was always sick of brawny bullies pickin on me
Dm
and i might snap , one day just like that
Gm
i decided to strike back and flatten every tire on the bike rack
Dm
( whosssssh ) my first day in junior high , this kid said ,
Gm
“it’s you and i , three o’clock sharp this afternoon you die”
Dm
i looked at my watch it was one twenty
Gm
“i already gave you my lunch money what more do you want from me?!?”
Dm
he said , “don’t try to run from me , you’ll just make it worse . . . ”
Gm
my palms were sweaty , and i started to shake at first
Dm
something told me , “try to fake a stomach ache it works”
Gm
i screamed , “owww! my appendix feels like they could burst!
Dm
teacher , teacher , quick i need a naked nurse!”
Gm
[ n ] “what’s the matter?”
Dm
[ E ] “i don’t know , my leg , it hurts!”
Gm
[ n ] “leg?!? i thought you said it was your tummy?!?”
Dm
[ E ] “oh , i mean it is , but i also got a bum knee!”
Gm
[ n ] “mr . mathers , the fun and games are over .
Dm
and just for that stunt , you’re gonna get some extra homework . ”
Gm
[ E ] “but don’t you wanna give me after school detention?”
Dm
[ n ] “nah , that bully wants to beat your ass and i’ma let him . ”
