(just do the harmonic guitar part on the first two verses and the bassline arranged for guitar above)

Staring at the boob tube 
turning up the big nob 
trying to find life in the wasteland 
searching for a program 
gonna deal with mary jane 
ready for a trip to the head land 

obnoxious Joe comes on the screen 
along with his guest self-rightous SAM 
some old guy who doesn't count 
his hair and clothes are much to out 
pushin' back his glasses 
SAM says 
he was elected by the masses 
with that in mind 
he starts to unwind 
a viscous attack upon the grasses 

(now play the guitar part above)

It's mean and evil, wicked and nasty 
don't step on the grass, SAM 
when we ruin our fair country 
don't be such an ass, SAM 
when we hook your sons and daughters 
your so full of shit, SAM 
all will pay who disagree with me 

Disinformation Joe and SAM 
feedin' it to the nation 
but the one that didn't count 
counted'em out 
exposing all their false quotations 
faced by an awkward situation 
It's all they had to save the day 

It's mean and evil, wicked and nasty 
don't step on the grass, SAM 
when we ruin our fair country 
don't be such an ass, SAM 
when we hook your sons and daughters 
your so full of shit, SAM 
all will pay who disagree with me 
please give up you already lost the fight alright 

(slower and cleaner part)

You waste my coin, SAM all you can 
to jail my fellow man 
for smokin' of the noble weed 
you need much more than him 
youv'e been telling lies so long 
some believe they're true 
so they close there eyes to things 
they have no right to do 
just as soon as you are gone 
hope will start to climb 
please don't wait around to long 
your wastin' prescious time 

It's mean and evil, wicked and nasty 
don't step on the grass, SAM 
when we ruin our fair country 
don't be such an ass, SAM 
when we hook your sons and daughters 
your so full of shit, SAM 
all will pay who disagree with me 
please give up you already lost the fight alright
