The Restaurant- Spoonboy
A
While moonlighting in the service of the bourgois elite,
D A
I caught lunch with a party of psuedo-environmental executives,
E
because I heard they'd pick up the bill.
A D
And then the billionaire took his seat at the head of the table
A
and wiped his ass with the dignity of the polynesian waiter,
E A
(who had only been misheard), but was subject to abuse. And I got caught.
A D A E A D A E

A
And I got caught. I was caught in a crisis of procedure,
D
what I knew but forgot in the comforts of leisure,
A
on review of the charts, all the facts and the figures:
E
ONLY LACK OF RECOGNITION WILL DISCREDIT OUR LEADERS.
A D
And the conflict lies on you: all the waiters of the world please spit in the soup,
A E
and the billionaires might finally get what's coming.
A
When the dishwashers of the world all mouth off to their boss,
D
then the latter that they build that they started on top
A E
might fall because it rests on you. and the shit that you go through
Bm D A E Bm D A E
just to stay alive.
Bm D A
1000 miles away, another conflict I'd been through
E Bm
about the innocence of the criminal when the victim is you.
D A E A
and the tendency to justify a law that's flawed. and I got caught.
I was caught in the crisis of my company.
D
What I knew, they did not, but I guess there's always something.
A E
There was a girl and a cop, and they wouldn't even talk to me. I got caught.
A
And the conflict lies on you,
D
all the waiters of the world please spit in the soup.
A E
and punk kids, please think about what you're doing.
A
When the dishwashers of the world all mouth off to their boss,
D
then the latter that they built, it might finally fall,
A
because you know it all rests on you,
E Bm D A
and the shit that you go through just to stay alive.
