(w/ Rhythm 2) 2x:
Hey Mister, don't point at me
You shout rhetoric nonsense like a Pavlovian model
Responding to his questions

Hey teacher, arrogance is bliss
You spend your time turning water into life
As if you were God's forman

(chorus)
A E F# A A F#
Is it any wonder things seem so awry?

A E F# B C#/B
We swim in a sea of confusion and don't have to think to survive

So nobody listens

Rhythm 1: 2x

(w/ Rhythm 2) 2x:
Hey recluse, don't shout at me
You proclaim yourself expert by extensions of methods
Detailed in your magazines

Hey downer, don't pray on me
We've all got bum raps that torment us day to day
That we hoist on our own shoulders

(w/ chorus rhythm)
Is it any wonde people pass you by?
Your plea for understanding is heard as desperate lies
So nobody listens

(w/ rhythm 1)
I can't help you
I can't help you
I can't help you
I can't help you, now

D A F# D A F#
Is it any wonder things are so inane?

D A F#
So many quests for compassion

B B/C#
Are just for someone's personal gain

So nobody listens

Rhythm 1: 2x

Nobody listens to you
