B                             G#m
Just when things are getting complicated
In the eye of the storm
She flicks a red-hot revelation
Off the tip of her tongue
It does a dozen somersaults
And leaves you supercharged
Makes me wanna blow the candles out
Just to see if you glow in the dark

Chorus:
      E  D#m

Shalalala

Home sweet home, home sweet home
Home sweet booby-trap
I took the batteries out my mysticism
And put 'em in my thinking cap
She's got a telescopic hallelujah
Hanging up on her wall
For when it gets too complicated
In the eye of the storm

Ohwoahoh...

          E                B
And in a hellcat spangled cavern,
           E                  B
when your judgement's on the run
           C#m7
And you're acting like a stranger,
           F#
cause you thought it looked like fun
            E             B
And did you ever get the feeling
                 E                  B
that these are things she's said before?
     C#m7             E7
Her steady hands may well have done
     B           E
the devil's pedicure
  B               E
What you waiting for?
E7           F#7           B  E
Sing another fuckin' Shalalala

Chorus:
      B  E
Shalalala
      B  E
Shalalala
      B    E
Shalalalaaa
