Biography:
Blue Kid is a project born out of a series of songwriting sessions that Lydia Benecke and Stephanie Sherline had over the course of the 2006 summer in Chicago, IL.
Lydia asked Stephanie: "What rhymes with 'stupid'?"
Lydia moved out to NY, bought a piano and began writing in earnest.
And there you have it.

[Verse 1]
E C#m
Hold still my sweet
A B
I'm trying to measure
E C#m
The space between
A B
Your molar and your jaw
E C#m
This caliper
A B
No cause for fear
E
No it
C#m
It doesn't hurt
A B
It only helps me measure
E C#m
How much skin you have
A B E C#m
In the topmost layer of fat
A B
But I won't make that incision
E C#m
Until you're nice and numb
A B E C#m
Oh and laughing gas can be so much fun
A B
Please don't doubt my decision
[Chorus]
C#m
This will be ooh
E
This will be aah
A G#
This will be absolutely whee
C#m E
This will be nice this will be neat
A G#
And bring you closer to me
C#m E
So don't you squirm don't you fret
A
I'm not gonna hurt you
G#
Yet
C#m E
I just feel the need to be getting
A
A little of you
G#
A lot of blood-letting
C#m E
I know the sensation you're probably dreading
A G#
But cutting you up will be so refreshing
C#m E A G#
For me
C#m E A G#
Refreshing for me yeah
[Verse 2]
E C#m
No don't you cry
A B
And don't call Miriam
E C#m
She's my alibi
A B
Oh let me check your toes out
E C#m
Aren't your toenails cute
A B E C#m
And red is such a lovely colour on you
A B
But you won't be needing those
E C#m
When you've got no knees
A B E C#m
Or shins or pinky fingers or arteries
A B
So hold still while I remove them
E C#m
Oh and don't fight back
A B E
I think you'll find you're missing the point
C#m
With that
A B
That's enough out of you
[Chorus]
C#m
This will be ooh
E
This will be aah
A G#
This will be absolutely whee
C#m E
This will be nice this will be neat
A G#
And bring you closer to me
C#m E
So don't you squirm don't you fret
A
I'm not gonna hurt you
G#
Yet
C#m E
I just feel the need to be getting
A
A little of you
G#
A lot of blood-letting
C#m E
I know the sensation you're probably dreading
A G#
But cutting you up will be so refreshing
C#m E A G#
For me
C#m E A G#
Refreshing for me yeah
[Bridge]
C#m E
Well once upon a time
A G#
That's where the plot begins
C#m E
And right after the end
A G#
Well that's where the plot thins and
C#m E A G#
I've got no angel to keep me in line
C#m E
So I'm taking your narrative
A G#
And I'm making it mine
C#m B
Cause I'm all out of hurt
A G#
You've used up all I got
C#m B
So I'm chopping you up
A G#
And still coming up squat
C#m B
If I wanted to bleed
A G#
I'd just roll up my sleeve
C#m E
And saw and saw
A G#
And saw and saw
C#m E
And saw and saw
A G#
And saw and saw
C#m E
And saw yeah
[Chorus]
C#m
This will be ooh
E
This will be aah
A G#
This will be absolutely whee
C#m E
This will be nice this will be neat
A G#
And bring you closer to me
C#m E
So don't you squirm don't you fret
A
I'm not gonna hurt you
G#
Yet
C#m E
I just feel the need to be getting
A
A little of you
G#
A lot of blood-letting
C#m E
I know the sensation you're probably dreading
[Outro]
A G#
But there's one thing you're forgetting
C#m E
There's nothing like the thrill of a shred again
A G#
This is no orthodox beheading
C#m E A G#
I'm cutting you up
C#m E A G#
Cutting you up
C#m E
Cutting you up is gonna be
A G#
So refreshing
C#m E A G#
For me
C#m E A G#
Refreshing for me yeah
C#m
Refreshing for me
