             G                            Bm 
In came the big board police to take the newly undeceased 
             Em                          D 
I was the softened gaze upon a child of God 
         G                    Bm 
And the sky was full of teeth anticipating that sweet release 
           Em                                          D 
I was the little engine that could, I was a courtroom bomb-sniffing dog 


         C               D                      G             Em 
And the blood collector collected blood and the cannibals all sang: 
 G          C         D      G 
"Tra la la, la la la la, la ley!" 


              G                      Bm  
They found a weird calling card in a puddle of body parts 
         Em                                          D 
Inside a bowl of angel hearts that the children were eating 
        G                       Bm 
I was a vampire hunter, I was a pregnant mother 
         Em                               D 
I was a tear shed for the one's that died believing# 


         C               D                      G             Em 
And the blood collector collected blood and the cannibals all sang: 
 G          C        D      G 
"Tra la la, la la la la, la ley!" 


C            D            G         Em 
Thunderdome, broken home, everybody dies alone 
        C                       D        G 
I wanna give a shout-out to the innocent by-standing 
         

              G                       Bm 
And out the corner of my eye, coming out from the teeth-filled sky 
              Em                                    D 
With eyes as red as a dog's asshole when you see it shitting 
G                                 Bm 
I saw the Children of God as they walked on slovenly by 
    Em                           D                          
The USB ports in their arms were bleeding 


         C               D                      G             Em 
And the blood collector collected blood and the cannibals all sang: 
   C              D              C              D 
"I think I can! I think I can! I think I can! I think I can! 
 G          C        D      G 
 Tra la la, la la la la, la ley!"
