Electable


Intro: A C#m E A
Verse 1:
I came up like everyone,
They taught us all the same.
I said what they told me to say,
And then, from that, they grade.
Verse 2:
Give up repeating the facts;
The fact could be arranged.
Here I am, I'll take my chance,
Now play the record straight.
Chorus 1:
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
(Repeat Intro)
Verse 3:
Talking points from talking heads
With automated smiles.
There's no higher ground to stand
Than bottom of the pile.
Verse 4:
Give up acting unaware,
You can't ignore the crime.
The enemy is you as well,
The enemy is I.
Chorus 1:
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Bridge:
Not in my name, you don't speak for me;
I am my voice, and I want to scream!
You want my air, you want my life,
I act as one, but I'm not alone.
Chorus 2:
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Chorus 1:
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
Give it up!
Oh oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh, oh!
(End with A)
