D               F#m
You've got your bit part, Mozart
            A   B
Hot dart acceleration

To read a mind you've got to re-
Define the line to make your circle sing, y'all
He knows everything
You make a sound, the spell is bound
To come around, it's just a minor thing, y'all
He knows everything
Ooooh, oh, oh...

Chorus:
You've got your bit part, Mozart
Hot dart acceleration
Pop art, pistol chasing
Catfight intimidation
All out interfacing
Black star motivation
Vampire, sugar junkie
Databasing infiltration

I change the key from c to d
You see to me it's just a minor thing, y'all
He knows everything
To readjust you've got to trust
That all the fuss is just a minor thing, y'all
He knows everything

It's just a minor thing
And I'm a minor king

It's just a minor thing
And I'm a minor king
