[INTRO]
[VERSE]
G                          Am                F
Don't you think that it's boring how people talk
G                         Am                    F
Making smart with their words again, well I'm bored
          G
Because I'm doing this for the thrill of it, killin' it
Am                                    F
Never not chasing a million things I want
          G
And I am only as young as the minute is full of it
Am                                               F
Getting pumped up on the little bright things I bought
F
But I know they'll never own me

(Yeah)

[CHORUS]
G
Baby be the class clown
C                            Am
I'll be the beauty queen in tears
                             G
It's a new art form showing people how little we care (yeah)
F                C                              G
We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear
G                                    Am
Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah (yeah)

[VERSE]
G                    Am                   F
Pretty soon I'll be getting on my first plane
G                         Am                   F
I'll see the veins of my city like they do in space
                 G
But my head's filling up fast with the wicked games, up in flames
Am                                             F
How can I fuck with the fun again, when I'm known
       G
And my boys trip me up with their heads again, loving them
Am                                               F
Everything's cool when we're all in line for the throne
F
But I know it's not forever

(Yeah)

[CHORUS]
G
Baby be the class clown
C                            Am
I'll be the beauty queen in tears
                             G
It's a new art form showing people how little we care (yeah)
F                C                              G
We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear
G                                    Am
Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah (yeah)

Am                                               F
Getting caught's half of the trip though, isn't it?
C                                  G
I fall apart with all my heart (yeah)
Am
And you could watch from your window (yeah)
