A#
Chinese masseuse, comes between us
F
Talks in haikus, plastic venus
A#
Got a headrush, in her pocket
F
Two rubbers two lubes, and a silver rocket

Chorus:
A#              F
Hang on, hang on to your IQ, to your ID
A#              F
Hang on, hang on to your IQ, to your ID
G F#       A#m
    I'm lonely, I'm lonely
    I'm lonely, I'm lonely

Every morning, my eyes will open wide
I gotta get high, before I go outside
Roll another, for breakfast
Burning clouds around, and in my solar plexus

Chorus

Legs eleven, makes me stay up late
Two fat ladies on my back, and now it's 88
I'm a fool, whose tool is small
It's so miniscule, it's no tool at all

Chorus
