Guitar Hero

Amanda Palmer Guitar Hero lyrics

i can't get them up at all
hey ho let's go

good morning killer king you're a star
that's gorgeous hold it right where you are
the weather's kinda lousy today
so what oh what oh what'll we play

stratocaster strapped to your back
its a semiautomatic like dad's
he taught you how to pause and reset
and thats about as far as you get

so whats the use of going outside
its so depressing when people die in real life
i'd rather pick up right where we left
makin' out to faces of death

and i could save you baby
but it isnt worth my time
and i could make you chase me
for a little price is right

it's a hit but are you actually sure
the targets in the crowd are a blur
the people screaming just like they should
but you don't even know if you're good

so tie them up and feed them the sand (ha! nigga!)
try to tell us using your hands
a picture's worth a million words
and that way nobody gets hurt

and i could save you baby
but it isnt worth my time
and i could make you chase me
for a little price is right

you're my guitar hero

x marks the box
in the hole in the ground
that goes off at a breath
so careful don't make a sound

x marks the box
in the hole in your head
that you dug for yourself
now lie in it

shut up about all of that negative shit
you wanted to make it and now that you're in
you're obviously not gonna die
so why not take your chances and try

how are you going to turn this thing off
this isn't at all like the ones back at home
you shut your eyes and flip the cassette
and that's about the time that they hit

what the fuck is up with this shit
it's certainly not worth getting upset
his hands are gone and most of his head
and just when he was getting so good

i could save you baby
but it isn't worth my time
and i could make you chase me
for a little slice of life

you're my guitar hero
