      Em          G                D         A
Hey, everybody's looking but they never can see
Em                 G               D       A
All the angst, corruption and the dishonesty
 Em              G                D            A
Think about the times and places you've never known
          Em         G       D           A
You're a man-swarm atom and yet you're alone

Chorus:
   C           B
So I give you me
   A#   A   Em    G D A Em G D A
I give you nothing
   C
I give you me
           Em    G D A Em G D A
I give you nothing

So you got a place that you can call all your own
But you've got a habit of carrying the stone
Look around and ask someone if you are alive
You're a sidewalk cipher speaking prionic jive

Chorus

Respectable, despicable, it seems all the same
Now we realize that we have nothing to say
If your reserve is weak, audacity complete
Ask yourself again, "Do I deserve much from them?" No!


Hey, everybody's looking but they never can see
All the angst, corruption and the dishonesty
Look around and ask someone if you are alive
You're a sidewalk cipher speaking prionic jive

Chorus
