Standard Tuning - Capo 5
[Verse I]
Am C
You're always aiming paper airplanes at me when you're around
Em Am
You build me up like building blocks just so you can bring me down
Am C
You can crush my candy cane but you'll never catch me cry
Am C
If you dangle that diploma and I deck you, don't be surprised
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
I know my ABC's, yet you keep teaching me
Em Am
I say, fuck your degree, alphabet boy
Am C
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry
Em Am
Fuck all your ABC's, alphabet boy
[Chorus]
Em
I'm not a little kid now
C
Watch me get big now
Em
Spell my name on the fridge now
C
With all your alphabet toys
Em
You won the spelling bee now
C
But are you smarter than me now?
Em
You're the prince of the playground
Am
Little alphabet boy
[Verse 2]
Am C
Apples aren't an always appropriate apologies
Em Am
Butterscotch and bubblegum drops are bittersweet to me
Am C
You call me a child while you keep counting all your coins
Em
But you're not my daddy and I'm not your dolly
Am
And your dictionary's destroyed
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
I know my ABC's, yet you keep teaching me
Em Am
I say, fuck your degree, alphabet boy
Am C
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry
Em Am
Fuck all your ABC's, alphabet boy
[Chorus]
Em
I'm not a little kid now
C
Watch me get big now
Em
Spell my name on the fridge now
C
With all your alphabet toys
Em
You won the spelling bee now
C
But are you smarter than me now?
Em
You're the prince of the playground
Am
Little alphabet boy
