The Future Freaks Me Out
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Chorus]
Eb Ab
I’m on fire
F Bb
and now I think I’m ready
Eb Ab
to bust a move
F Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady
Go!
[Instrumental]
Eb Ab F Bb (x3)
Eb Ab F Gb
[Verse]
Eb
Betty won’t stop listening to modern rock
C Bb
How she hates to be alone
Eb
I try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake
C Bb
Ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine she says hey
Eb
I rock the Haro sport, I rock the cow girl blues
C Bb
I rock too fast for love I’m footloose in my Velcro shoes
Eb
What’s up with Will and Grace? I don’t get drum and bass
C Bb
The future freaks me out
[Instrumental]
Eb C Bb
Eb C
[Chorus]
Eb Ab
I’m on fire
F Bb
and now I think I’m ready
Eb Ab
to bust a move
F Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady
Eb Ab
To the beat in my head
F Bb
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh
Eb Ab F
I know that she’s the only one
Gb
I’d rather waste our time together
N.C.
Yeah, ‘cause we can get down
[Instrumental]
Eb C Bb
Eb C
[Verse]
Eb
Betty can’t quit carving question marks in my wrist
C Bb
How come we’re so alone
Eb
We waste away the days with nicotine and television samples
C Bb
From an era we hate to admit we embrace
Eb
We fail to represent, we fail to be content
C Bb
We fail at everything we ever even try to attempt
Eb
And so the story goes as only Betty knows
C Bb
It’s time to take control (Get Down)
[Chorus]
Eb Ab
I’m on fire
F Bb
and now I think I’m ready
Eb Ab
to bust a move
F Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady
Eb Ab
To the beat in my head
F Bb
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh
Eb Ab F
I know that she’s the only one
Gb
I’d rather waste my time with her
[Bridge]
Eb Ab
Betty, I need you
F
I miss you
Bb
I’m so alone
Eb
without you
Ab
To call up on the
F
weekends with my
Bb
cellular phone
Eb Ab
Betty it’s so hard to relate
F
To the whole human race
Bb
I don’t know where to begin
Eb
I don’t know where to begin
Ab
If we can both find a way
F
To do the things that we say
Bb
We might not sit in our rooms
And drink our daydreams away
Eb
Betty, I’m a dreamer
Ab
I’m not a vicious schemer
Gb
Oh Betty won’t you.. ah fuck it
[Chorus]
Eb Ab
I’m on fire
F Bb
and now I think I’m ready
Eb Ab

F Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady

To the beat in my head

I'm on fire and now I think I'm ready to bust a move
Check it out, I'm rocking steady
Go!
Betty won't stop listening to modern rock
How she hates to be alone
I try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake
Ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine
She says, "Hey, I rock the Haro Sport
I rock the cowgirl blues
I rock too fast for love
I'm footloose in my Velcro shoes
What's up with Will and Grace?
I don't get drum and bass
The future freaks me out."
I'm on fire and now I think I'm ready to bust a move
Check it out, I'm rocking steady
To the beat in my head
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh
I know that she's the only one
I'd rather waste our time together
Yeah, 'cause we can get down
Betty can't quit carving question marks in my wrist
How come we're so alone?
We waste away the days with nicotine and television samples
Of an era we hate to admit we embrace
We fail to represent
We fail to be content
We fail at everything we ever even try to attempt
And so the story goes
As only Betty knows
It's time we take control
(Get down)
Betty, I need you
I miss you
I'm so alone without you
To call up on the weekends with my cellular phone
Betty, it's so hard to relate
To the whole human race
I don't know where to begin
I don't know where to begin
If we can both find a way
To do the things that we say
We might not sit in our rooms
And drink our daydreams away
Betty, I'm a dreamer
I'm not a vicious schemer
Oh Betty, won't you- ah fuck it
