[Intro]
[Estrofe]
E 
If I could stick my pen in my heart 
 
I would spill it all over the stage 
 
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya, 
 
Would you think the boy is strange? 
         A  G  E 
Ain't he strange?
[Estrofe]
E 
If I could win ya, If I could sing ya 
 
a love song so divine 
 
would it be enough for your cheating heart 
 
if I broke down and cried? 
     A G E 
If I cried?

[Estrofe]
E 
If I could stick a knife in my heart 
 
Suicide right on the stage 
 
Would it be enough for your teenage lust 
 
Would it help to ease the pain? 
          A G E 
Ease your brain?
[Estrofe]
E 
If I could dig down deep in my heart 
 
Feelings would flood on the page 
 
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya, 
 
Would you think the boy's insane? 
     A G E 
He's insane
