Cult Boyfriend

(início)

E                    D
The misfits are cult rock and roll
           A               E
Worshipped by a few but ignored on the whole.
E                     D
Meet the Feebles is a film cult classic
     A                          E
It’s basically unknown but some say it’s fantastic.
     E                      D
Most women that I meet seem totally unphased
     A                                    E
‘Til sometimes there’s somebody who seems totally amazed.
          E                    D
I may not be in magazines as a heart-throb face
         A                               E
But in a few devoted hearts I’ve found a strong fanbase.
Chorus
      E                     D
I'm a cult boyfriend, not a mainstream show
    A                            E
I'm lonely or I'm worshiped by a lady in the know
              E                     D
When you’re a cult boyfriend life is always intense
     A                                E
They love me or they hate me no one’s on the fence
Verse
E               D
Cerebus is cult comic book series.
         A                            E
It’s got fans but it’s never found in movies or in theories.
E              D
WFMU is a cult radio station
       A                         E
Always tuned to by a few devoted fans around the nation.
    E                                  D
For every time I couldn’t get a second date or even first,
         A                                   E
Why does one think I’m the best when all the rest think I’m the worst?
E                            D
All of those times no one at all wanted to know.
       A                                E
If I’m really all that awesome wouldn’t more people think so?
Chorus
        E                     D
I guess Cult Boyfriend is the term for me,
            A                E
It’s always been quality not quantity.
       E                              D
A cult boyfriend’s like a record in a bargain bin
       A                         E
No one knows its worth ‘til a collector comes in.

Verse
E                      D
Hmm, uh, who are some cult literary names I could honour?
A                      E
Maybe J. G. Ballard or Flannery O’Connor.
E                          D
Haggis and fugu, that’s like food for cult eaters.
A                          E
Jim Jones, Charles Manson, Father Yod, they’re cult leaders.
E                        D
Anyways the point being, do I have to magical?
A                                           E
Can’t we date a few months then move on normal and casual?
E                         D
Suicidally alone and then totally smothered –
             A                               E
It’s so much pressure when you go from one extreme to the other.
Chorus
        E                     D

They're in love or they're indifferent – no one’s on the fence

End
    E                                      D
And this song probably ain’t gonna go very far beyond an open mic.
A                                    E
It’s guaranteed though, two or three people are really gonna like it.
