Artist : MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACKSong : The Future Freaks Me Out
D# G#
I’m on fire
F A#
and now I think I’m ready
D# G#
to bust a move
F A#
Check it out I’m rocking steady
Go!
D# G# F A# (3x)
D# G# F F#
D#
Betty won’t stop listening to modern rock
C A#
How she hates to be alone
D#
I try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake
C A#
Ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine she says hey
D#
I rock the Haro sport
I rock the cow girl blues
C A#
I rock too fast for love I’m footloose in my Velcro shoes
D#
What’s up with Will and Grace?
C
I don’t get drum and bass
C A#
The future freaks me out

D# G#
I’m on fire
F A#
and now I think I’m ready
D# G#
to bust a move
F A#
Check it out I’m rocking steady
D# G#
To the beat in my head
F A#
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh
D# G# F
I know that she’s the only one
F#
I’d rather waste our time together
Yeah, ‘cause we can get down
D# C A#
D# C
D#
Betty can’t quit carving question marks in my wrist
C A#
How come we’re so alone
D#
We waste away the days with nicotine and television samples
C A#
From an era we hate to admit we embrace
D#
We fail to represent
C
We fail to be content
C A#
We fail at everything we ever even try to attempt
D#
And so the story goes
C
As only Betty knows
C A#
It’s time to take control
(Get Down)

D# G#
Betty, I need you
F
I miss you
A#
I’m so alone
D#
without you
G#
To call up on the
F
weekends with my
A#
cellular phone
D#
Betty it’s so hard to relate
G#
To the whole human race
F
I don’t know where to begin
A#
I don’t know where to begin
D#
If we can both find a way
G#
To do the things that we say
F
We might not sit in our rooms
A#
And drink our daydreams away
D#
Betty, I’m a dreamer
G#
I’m not a vicious schemer
F#
Oh Betty won’t you.. ah fuck it
