Lyrics

I am that rare and awe some thing.

Yet, I feel a twinge of doubt

as I go walk a bout.

When my name is whis pered through the (Gm)pride,

is this talk of (D)love or reg i (Gm)cide?

Tell me I’m a (Cm)dored.

Please, (D)tell me I’m a (Gm)dored.

Yeah, you’re our sav ior.

Thanks a bunch!

But what a bout some lunch?

It does n’t mat ter if it’s fresh.

I need a fix of flesh.

My (Dm)bones have moved to where they’ve nev er (Am)been.

They are on the out side look ing (Am)in.

You are so a (F)dored.

You are so a (Esus)dored.

You (E)are so a (Am)dored.

But what I’d give for one more hit of wil de beest kiel ba sa.

Or may be horn bill on a spit.

Come, sweet Na la, it’s (D7sus)writ ten (D7)in the stars.
