Song lyrics:
E Born to... C#m C#sus2 F#m F#m G#m Born to multiply or born to gaze into night skies, A G#m F#m E When all you want's one more Saturday. C#m C#sus2 But look here, until then F#m F#m G#m They're gonna buy your life's time A G#m F#m So keep your wick in the air and your feet in the fetters B To the day. E We come in doing cartwheels B We all crawl out by ourselves E And your shape on the dance floor B Will have me thinking such filth and gauge my eyes. C#m A C#m You'd be damned to be one of us girl A Faced with a dodo's conundrum E F#m A Ah, I felt like I could just fly G#m B A G#m F#m E But nothing happened every time I tried. C#m C#sus2 A dual tone under wall F#m F#m G#m The selfless fool who hoped he'd save us all A G#m F#m E He never dreamt of such sterile hands, C#m C#sus2 You keep them folded in your lap, F#m F#m G#m Or raise them up to beg for scraps, A You know, he's holding you down, G#m F#m B With the tips of his fingers just the same, E Will you be pulled from the ocean, B But just a minute too late, E Or changed by a potion, B And find a handsome young mate, B For you to love. C#m A You'll be damned to pining through the windowpanes, C#m A E F#m You know you'd trade your life for any ordinary Joe's, A Well do it now or grow old, G#m B A G#m F#m E Your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold. E C#m C#sus2 F#m G#m A G#m F#m E C#m C#sus2 F#m G#m A G#m F#m B Been alone since you were twenty-one, E You haven't laughed since January, B You try and make like this is so much fun, E But we know it to be quite contrary. B C#m A Dare to be one of us, girl, C#m A Facing the android's conundrum, E F#m A Ah, I feel like I should just cry, G#m A But nothing happens every time I take one on the chin, G#m Yeah, Himmler in your coat, A You don't know how long I've been, G#m A Watching the lantern dim, G#m A Starved of oxygen, F#m So give me your hand, A B E And let's jump out the window.
