[VERSE]
                  G#5
He hit the ground running,
       F5
At the speed of light.
                      G#5
The star was brightly shining,
     F5
Like a neon light.

It's your favorite son.

A fixture on the talkshows,

He's a sex machine.

But isn't it a drag?

Isn't it a drag?
           F5
Isn't it a drag?
                   C#5
It's pretty bloody sad,
               D#5
but isn't it a drag?

[VERSE]
                 G#5
A clean-cut All-American,
       F5
Really ain't so clean.
              G#5
His royal auditorium,
     F5
Is a murder scene.

Turn a teenage lush,

To a millionaire.

[VERSE]
                         G#5
Now where's your f**kin' champion?
     F5
On a bed you laid.

He's not the All-American,
         F5
That you thought you paid.
