Barenaked Ladies - One Week


CHORUS:
              G                            C9
It's been one week since you looked at me
G                                                  C9
Cocked your head to one side and said "I'm angry"
G                           C9
Five days since you laughed at me
           G                                                C9
saying "get that together, come back and see me"
G                             C9
Three days since the living room
  G                                 C9
I realised it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
G                           C9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
           G                             C9
But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

G
Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman 
I summon fish to the dish, 
Although I like the Chalet Suisse 
And I like the sushi 
'cause it's never touched a frying pan 
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes 
Big like LeAnn Rimes
because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits 
You try to match wits 
You try to hold me but I bust through 
Gonna make a break and take a fake 
I'd like a stinkin' achin' shake 
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours 
Gotta see the show cause then you'll know 
The vertigo is gonna grow 
'Cause it's so dangerous, you'll have to sign a waiver


BRIDGE:
Em7                         Dsus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
G/B                    C9
Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad
Em7                             Dsus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
G/B                               C9
Can't understand what I mean? Well you soon will
Em7                        Dsus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
G/B                     C9
I have a history of takin off my shirt


CHORUS:
It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air and said "You're crazy"
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realised it's not my fault not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry


Chickety china, the Chinese chicken
Have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin' 
Watchin X-Files with no lights on, 
We're dans la maison 
I hope the smoking man's in this one 
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic 
Like Sting I'm tantric 
like Snickers guaranteed to satisfy 
Like Kurasawa I make mad films 
Okay I don't make films 
but if I did they'd have a Samurai 
Gonna get a set a' better clubs 
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs 
just so my irons aren't always flying off the backswing 
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon 
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes 
that make me think the wrong thing. 


BRIDGE:
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean? You soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt


CHORUS:
It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realised we're both to blame, but what could we do? 
Yesterday you just smiled at me
'Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry


OUTRO:
G
Still be two days till we say we're sorry
G
Still be two days till we say we're sorry
G
Birchmount stadium, home of the Robbie
