D                             G
My children scare me
D     E   F# G      F#    D  E   F#  E       D         G    D  
they will run around and cry and throw things at me
D     E   F#         G      F#          D  E   
they will scream and scream and scream 
F#   E        D           Bm
and scream and scream
they will eat the tinsel off of the tree
they will puke all night and day and day and night
they will never go to sleep without a fight
they will throw the christmas wreaths into the fire
they will curse and swear and slash their grandmas tires
they will roam around the streets in vicious gangs
they will cut you with their claws and sharpened fangs
A                           
But late this christmas night
D
there was a clatter on the roof
A
like the scrape of Santa's sleigh
D
and clack of reindeer hooves
G
but what followed all that noise 
D
was not the sound of christmas cheer
G
but a series of violent thuds
E                                     A   A7
and a scream of primal fear
G
I ran outside to see about
D
this commotion on my home
G
and I saw my children bathed in blood
E                                   A
with a stack of reindeer bones
G
reindeer bones
D     GDGDGDGD A A7 D

How many more christmases
Will I hold you in my arms?
How many more holidays
Will you fall for all my charms?

Somewhere down the road
Will we get what we are owed? 
Are we destined to explode
Before we all must go out dancing?
How far have we gone?
What’s the road that we’ve been on? 
Will be burn the amazon 
Before we all can go out dancing?

How many more nights away
Will you tell me I’m your man?
How many more love affairs
Til we’re back where we began?

Somewhere near the end
Is it too hard to pretend
That we have enough to spend
So we all can go out dancing
It’s closer than you think
Have you had enough to drink?
Do we sign with blood or ink?
So we all must go out dancing
How many more harmonies
Will we sing before the dawn?
How many more sleepless nights
Will we have to carry on?

Instrumental

How many more witnesses
Do we throw onto the fire?
How many more christmases
Will we hear the children’s choir?

Instrumental

put your weight upon the wheel 
Keep your eyes upon the road 
put your hands where I can see em’ 
take me where I need to go 
X2 

I don’t like this new look on your face at all 
This ain’t the road that takes me to my place 
don’t try to take me away for the night I’m alone 
I just wanted a ride back to my home 

put your weight upon the wheel 
Keep your eyes upon the road 
put your hands where I can see em’ 
take me where I need to go 
X2 

I don’t want to look at the ocean at night 
I don’t need this wandering hand gripping my thigh 
I don’t carry a gun and I’m not very strong 
I want you to know just how you’re wrong 

I don’t like this new look on your face at all 
This ain’t the road that takes me to my place 
don’t try to take me away for the night I’m alone 
I just wanted a ride back to my home

This Doesn't Fit In My Fantasy - Sad Tax

A difficult bag of chips to open. A man with silver ear drums who sees into scents of the spheres. A soft hearted vial of anthrax. A tube of blister cream and a hot needle. A guy with 21 albums and a movie.
