One week (1998) (video) (midi)

- G C

It's been one week since you looked at me,

G C

cocked your head to the side and said, "I'm angry."

G C

Five days since you laughed at me saying,

G C

"Get that together, come back and see me."

G C

Three days since the living room,

G C

I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you.

G C

Yesterday you'd forgiven me.

G C

but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry.

G

1. Hold it now and watch the hoodwink, as I make you stop think,

C

you'll think you're looking at Aquaman.

G

I summon fish to the dish, although I like Chalet Swiss,

C

I like the sushi cause it's never touched a frying pan.

G

Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes big like LeAnn Rimes

C

because I'm all about value.

G

Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits you try to match wits,

C

you try to hold me but I bust through.

G

Gonna make a break and take a fake I'd like a stinkin' achin' shake,

C

I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours.

G

Gotta see the show, 'cause then you'll know the vertigo is gonna grow,

C

‘cause it's so dangerous, you'll have to sign a waiver.

Em D

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad,

Bm C

tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad.

Em D

I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral,

Bm C

can't understand what I mean? Well you soon will.

Em D

I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve,

Bm C

I have a history of taking off my shirt.

G C

It's been one week since you looked at me,

G C

threw your arms in the air and said, "You're crazy."

G C

Five days since you tackled me,

G C

I've still got the rug burns on both my knees.

G C

It's been three days since the afternoon

G C

you realized it's not my fault, not a moment too soon.

G C

Yesterday you'd forgiven me,

G C G

and now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry.

G

2. Chickity China the Chinese chicken,

C

you have a drum stick and your brain stops tickin’.

G

Watchin' X-Files with no lights on we're dans la maison

C

I hope the Smoking Man's in this one,

G

Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic, like Sting I'm tantric,

C

like snickers, guaranteed to satisfy.

G

Like Kurasawa, I make mad films, okay, I don't make films,

C

but if I did they'd have a Samurai,

G

Gonna get a set of better clubs gonna find the kind with tiny nubs

C

just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing.

G

Gonna get in tune with Sailor Moon cause the cartoon has got

C

the boom anime babes that make me think the wrong thing.

Em D

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad,

tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad.

G C

It's been one week since you looked at me,

G C

dropped your arms to your sides and said "I'm sorry" (hey)

G C

Five days since I laughed at you and said,

G C

"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do".

G C

Three days since the living room,

G C

we realized we're both to blame, but what could we do ?

G C

Yesterday you just smiled at me,

G C

‘cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry.
