Intro: Em C F7 Dm 
 
C                                      Am 
Subsequent to the events you have just witnessed 
Dm                              B7 
Similar events in cities across America 
E7                              Am 
Events which bore a striking resemblance 
       Dm                 C          G 
To the ones you have just seen began occurring 
 
C                                      Am 
Subsequent to the events you have just witnessed 
     Dm                              B7 
Unsuspecting jerks from Maine to California 
          E7                            Am 
Made the acquaintance of a new breed of fly trap 
        Dm                C          G 
And got sweet-talked into feeding it blood 
 
         C                            Dm7 
Thus the plants worked their terrible will 
        Dm                              Em 
Finding jerks who would feed them their fill 
        E7                  F         Dm 
And the plants proceeded to grow, and grow 
      Em                         C 
And began what they came here to do 
Dm                    B7 
Which was essentially to  
    C 
Eat Cleveland 
    C 
And Des Moines 
    C 
And Peoria 
        D7 
And New York 
         G 
And this theater! 
 
D C G D C 
 
D                              B7 
They may offer you fortune and fame 
D                            E 
Love and money and instant acclaim 
E                           B7             E 
But whatever they offer you don't feed the plants! 
 
D                                B7 
They may offer you lots of cheap thrills 
D                       E 
Fancy condos in Beverly Hills 
E                           B7             E  
But whatever they offer you don't feed the plants! 
 
E         A          C      B 
Look out, here comes Audrey II 
E         A      C        B 
Look out, here i come for you 
B 
(Here I come for you, here I come for you, here I come for you) 
 
D                                 B7 
Hold your hat and hang on to your soul 
D                                   E 
Something's coming to eat the world whole 
D                                B7 
If we fight it we've still got a chance  
E 
But whatever they offer you 
E 
Though they're slopping the trough for you 
E  
Please whatever they offer you 
B7             E                    G#m F#m 
Don't feed the plants (We'll have tomorrow) 
E     D    B7  E F#m G#m E 
Don't feed the plants!
