NOTE: I'm finding it hard to tab beyond >>>: it gets confusing trying to
play it slow and write down the numbers but you have the idea.
It's real hard to play at first (i.e. don't try it on an acoustic)
but once you get the rhythm it's easy. The best thing to do would
be to play along with the song because it would be hard to do it
from tab alone without the rhythm. After I figured this out, I
saw Tim play it in concert and instead of playing it like this:
6:-0-0-7-0-10......
(10th fret, 6th string)
He played:
5:---------5-
6:-0-0-7-0---....
(5th fret, 5th string)
which is the same note, but I find it too hard to switch strings.

Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Riff 1 (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Don't fear mere words cuz if it takes a word ruin ya
You should have already hard you're finished through and soon ya
See that stifling sentences is so much more suspicious
Much worse could come of that so much more delicious
---> Play Riff 2 over:
To the dastardly basturdly plans of little mice and men
Ugly rears its head and speaks from now and then
People love to disagree so avoid the endless bout make no attempt
To try and suss the stupid out
But of the racist institutions simple minds belong
Not happy just being human, no wish to get along
Little people need exclusions sucker groups to throng
It makes them feel special it makes them feel strong
---> Play Riff 3 over:
Now I got a click but it's more like a family
Not an ethnic trip more like an ethic see
I write the rhyme today tell it to you later
Whether were coming in wack or what it's a waste to be a hater
Graffiti bombs-from the palms-love is so strong
Can't be stopped too long
For the night it will come
Shaped in the form of Mars that stone afar
Ghetto cool Oh well
Now you feel the spell
The color rocks the bell
---> Play Riff 1 over:
The king of swing rise to the top
The rhythm possessed in ya and it don't stop
The mise is broken The demon locin'
Dropping the bomb and all that is left is the smokin'
---> Play Fill 1 over:
Cloakin' chokin, the lyrics are spoken
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Infrared vision scopin' condition
Now breakin' 'em all to pieces like a sly rap bandit
With a fly Lu-Kang kick in Mortal Combat and I land it
---> Play Riff 2 over:
So get your own back when I jam it cold and
Hearing about you rhyme style been outmoded
The dopest flow upon the planet
Dope is the word the bro throw up on the down low goddammit
You juice your ***ing friends like Dracula
But when we kick you out you're just brokula
You left a big surprise from Pacific Bell
Called all your relatives and your friends in Hell
---> Play Riff 3 over:
Now let me tell you something you ***ing piece of ***
You'll never have no money, now tell me was it worth it?
You leave a trail of lies that's why you keep moving
We won't come after you we'd only end up provin
In the end revenge send ends to the defendant
I know that statement's true I wear it like a pendant
I know you'll hear this song so I think it's funny
The name is thief or trust and money
---> Play Riff 4 over:
Like Captain Picard we come hard in light years
Our star has long bust but now reappears
In your sky at night rising and immense
Yes you see ourselves in the shine of it
And so passing under the dome of the great sky
Beware we are the stars Holmes that you ruled by
Where death reborn into the world is a gift
So the future with no voice of its own will uplift
---> Play Final over:
All is gone, all is calm y'all
All is gone, all is calm y'all
All is gone, all is calm y'all
All is gone, all is calm y'all
_/SA: All is gone, all is calm y'all
\Nick: Set wrecked in L.A.
_/SA: All is gone, all is calm y'all
\Nick: In the Wetlands of New York
_/SA: All is gone, all is calm y'all
\Nick: Atlanta and Phoenix
_/SA: All is gone, all is calm y'all
\Nick:Portland, Lincoln and N.O.
---> Play Ending (x1)
