Cockroach by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum
Am
O loathsome crawling thing
G Am
Be done with your miniscule affairs
O hungry creeping speck
G Am C E
I release you from your cares Be gone
(silence...)
Roach!
Am F
You live on carrion That's outrageous
Am D
You're probably contagious
Am Dm
Blind crippled and half-squashed
E E7
and yet you carry on
Am F
Your persistence is disgusting
Am D
I could never find myself trusting
Am Dm E E7
A creature that would rather live in the trash than in the lawn
F E D A
Cockroach your problems are not mine
Dm A
I love life but with you I draw the line
Dm
Not to flaunt my superior design
F E7 Am
But next to you I'm practically divine
F
your problems are not mine
E E E7 Am
Cockroach your problems are not mine
Am
O loathsome crawling thing
G Am
Be done with your miniscule affairs
O hungry creeping speck
G Am C E
I release you from your cares Be gone
(silence...)
Roach!
