C
G B Em Bb I guess I always knew someday the day would come C Am G when a simple explanation simply wouldn't be enough A G7 At this point I have 7 wigs, Em 52 game, 12 DVDS, 9 manga, Am 250 K-pop songs on mp3s Am Most of which you paid for So I guess I understand D Why you want an explanation Dm G I'll explain as best I can
Verse 1
C G Mother, Father, the reason I like anime D F G The reason I know foreign words that only avid fans could say, C Em Dm Am The reason that I dress up weird and go to strange conventions Dm Am Is because I think it's fun! Dm Am It's not just for attention
Verse 2
C G Mother, Father, you don't quite get this cosplay thing, D F G why people walk around the streets as Pokemon and Card Game Kings? C Em Or how come in the US Dm Am We'd wear Japanese Street Fashion? Dm Am Well, it's like a costumes party, Dm Am and it's part of the attraction!
Chorus
G Em I'm sorry if I'm stuttering, Dm A but really how on earth? Dm Em Do I explain this to my parents, Am G who've sheltered me from birth? G G#maj7 G That I'm not watching cartoons! G G#maj7 G And this isn't just a phase! Dm Am Yes it's weird, thats why I love it, F G No, it wont affect my grades! C Am Cause despite all my explaining, G C I can never make them see! Em Dm Em They just wonder what they did wrong, Dm raising me
Verse 3
C G Oh Mother, Father please let me join the maid cafe! D I swear it isn't creepy, F G though I see how it could sound that way... C Em Dm Am And I assure you Lolita's not what the book was written on! Dm Am Oh wait you didn't read the book, Dm I didn't either Am Moving on...
Chorus
G Em I'm sorry if I'm stuttering, Dm A but really how on earth? Dm Em Do I explain this to my parents, Am G who've sheltered me from birth? G G#maj7 G That I'm not watching cartoons! G G#maj7 G And this isn't just a phase! Dm Am Yes it's weird, thats why I love it, F G No, it wont affect my grades! C Am Cause despite all my explaining, G C I can never make them see! Em Dm Em They just wonder what they did wrong, Dm raising me C Am So I know you think I'm crazy, G C I've explained as best I can Em D And I hope that you accept me Em Dm For the person that I am Am Dm A person who likes watching animation from Japan, Am Dm Who sometimes turns into a raging, raving, squealing fan!!
Verse 4
C G Oh Mother, Father You want to know what shipping is D I would explain but I'm afraid, F G you won't respect me after this, C Em I'd tell you about fandoms, Dm Am and their strange imaginations Dm Am Dm How for most fans fanfiction is just a form of mas- G ...creation?
