Pretty Pimpin

Key: AmMedium

Am7

Am7I woke up this morning

CDidn't recognize the man in the mirEmror

Then I Glaughed and I said, C"oh silly me,D that's just me"

Then Am7I proceeded to Cbrush some stranger's teeth

But they were my teetEmh, and I was wGeightless

Just Cquivering like some leDaf

Come in the window of a rAm7estroom

I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean

But it was a monday, no a tuesday

No wednesday, thursday, friday

Then saturday came around and I said

"who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink? "

All he ever wanted was to be someone in life

That was just like

All I want is to just have fun

Live my life like a son of a gun

If I could be one thousand miles away

And still me would I stay?

Then I woke up one morning

Didn't recognize the man in the mirror

Then I laughed and I said, "oh silly me, that's just me"

Then I proceeded to not comb some stranger's hair

Never was my style

But I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean

Because it was a monday, no a tuesday

No wednesday, thursday, friday

Then saturday came around and I said

"who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink? "

But he was sporting all my clothes

I gotta say I'm pretty pimpin'

All he ever wanted was to be a man

But he was always a little too cute

To be admitted under marbles lost

He was always a thousand miles away

While still standing in front of your face

Then he woke up this morning

Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror

Then laughed and said, "oh silly me, that's just me"

Then I proceeded to brush some stranger's teeth

But they were my teeth, and I was weightless

Just quivering like some leaf

Come in the window of a restroom

And I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean

Cause it was a monday, no a tuesday

No wednesday, thursday, friday

Then saturday came around and I said

"who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink? "

But he was sporting all my clothes

I gotta say pretty pimpin

I woke up this morning, didn't recognize the boy in the mirror

Shame on you, shame on you

Shame on you

Oh baby when you cry, it brings a tear to my eye
