It's Not Safe/Aimee Mann

                                  
All you want to do is something good
So get ready to be ridiculed and misunderstood
                                                 /    
'Cause don't you know that you're a fucking freak in this world
                                          
In which everybody's willing to choose swine over pearls
                       
And maybe everything is all for nothing
                 
Still you'd better keep it to yourself

                                         
'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else 2x

                                        
You can take your own advice and try again
But a thousand compromises don't add up to a win
                                     /    
And they'd be happy if you'd only cover your tracks
                                                        
But the trail of crumbs you've left won't help you find your way back
                      
So maybe everything is all for nothing
                 
Still you'd better keep it to yourself
                                        
'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else 3x
                                         
'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody 

                                                          
You can play along, but you'll just end up wrong somehow won't you

[solo]         2x  

                                   /    
But you're the idiot who keeps believing in luck
                                                              
And you just can't get it through your head that no one else gives a fuck
                      
So maybe everything is all for nothing
                 
Still you'd better keep it to yourself
                                        
'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else 3x

[solo 2] A Em D 5 x

(quietly)
         
Ah ah ah ah             2x

(picks back up)
            
Ooo oo oo oo oo
                                 
God knows it's not safe with anybody else
            
Ooo oo oo oo oo
                       
It's not safe with anybody else
            
Ooo oo oo oo oo
                                           
God knows it's not safe with anybody else
            
Ooo oo oo oo oo

-52 secs of silence-

(Play that guitar)
(sparkly)
        2x  
      A            (music stops)
But you're the idiot who keeps believing in luck

(jazz clarinet solo in Em)

The speaker is out of the picture
I'm talking to the microphone
The microphone thinks that I'm talking
But I'm not talking at all
I'm singing to you)
