Verse 1
Well It SAm9tumbles And It Falls Off Of Almost Every Tongue
Give A Dm7Listen And You'll Hear
It's Am9Workin' Like A Landmine In Almost Every Sentence
It's An AsDm7sault To My Mind's Ear
Yeah It AmMight Have Started Back With Jack Kerouac
Probably More Than Dm7Likely It Was Maynard G. Krebs
It's The Am94 Letter Word That Used To Mean 'As If'
And The Dm7Meaning's Covered In Cobwebs Am9       Dm7​

Verse 2
Used To Am9Be A Preposition Then It Was A Conjunction
Now It's Dm7Used As An Audible Pause
Oh I Am9Hate It When I Hear It Especially When I See It
Gotta SDm7tamp It Out There Ought To Be Some Laws
College Am9Boys Valley Girls Mall Rats Grandmammas
EveryDm7body's Mis-Usin' That Word
I Am9Heard It Four Times In One Poor Little Sentence
It Was The Dm7Saddest Sound I Ever Have Heard

Bridge
G I Suppose You Could Blame It On MyC Generation
Chickens DFrom The 60S Finally Comin' Into GRoostD​
G I've Been Sayin' It Myself For Over C30 Years Now
D Just To Give My Cool Quota Just A Little GBitty Kind Of A Boost
Am But When I Hear It,C I Can't Stand It
D Especially Coming Out Of The Mouths Of One Of My GOwn KidsD​
G It's Been Taught And God,C What Have We Wrought?
D Give A Listen Here, What Do We Dig?G     Dm7​

Verse 3
Am9I Prefer Ah Or Er
Dm7You Can Rest Assured
If You're Am9Sayin' What You Mean Then It Don't Mean A Thing
It's Just An Dm7Ugly Little 4 Letter Word
Doesn't Am9Anybody Care Or Am I The Only One?
Am I Just SDm7tuck Back In Some Kind Of A Past?
Am9Maybe It's Harmless But It Feels Like A Virus
And It Dm7Sounds Like It's Catchin' On Fast
