Verse 1
Well It SCm9tumbles And It Falls Off Of Almost Every Tongue
Give A Fm7Listen And You'll Hear
It's Cm9Workin' Like A Landmine In Almost Every Sentence
It's An AsFm7sault To My Mind's Ear
Yeah It CmMight Have Started Back With Jack Kerouac
Probably More Than Fm7Likely It Was Maynard G. Krebs
It's The Cm94 Letter Word That Used To Mean 'As If'
And The Fm7Meaning's Covered In Cobwebs Cm9       Fm7​

Verse 2
Used To Cm9Be A Preposition Then It Was A Conjunction
Now It's Fm7Used As An Audible Pause
Oh I Cm9Hate It When I Hear It Especially When I See It
Gotta SFm7tamp It Out There Ought To Be Some Laws
College Cm9Boys Valley Girls Mall Rats Grandmammas
EveryFm7body's Mis-Usin' That Word
I Cm9Heard It Four Times In One Poor Little Sentence
It Was The Fm7Saddest Sound I Ever Have Heard
