[ Verse ]

D C
Flies are buzzing around my head
E D
Vultures circling my bed
Bb C D
Picking up every last crumb
(same as above)
The big fish eat the little ones
The big fish eat the little ones
Not my problem give me some

[ Chorus ]

F
You can try the best you can
G
If you try the best you can
Bb C D
The best you can is good enough
(x2)

(And then it's always the same thing...)

This one's optimistic
This one went to market
This one just came out of the swamp
This one dropped a payload
Fodder for the animals
Living on an animal farm

If you try the best you can
If you try the best you can
The best you can is good enough
(x2)

I'd really like to help you man
I'd really like to help you man.....
Nervous messed up marionette
Floating around on a prison ship

If you try the best you can
If you try the best you can
The best you can is good enough
If you try the best you can
If you try the best you can
Dinosaurs roaming the earth (x3)
