^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
(What does he say? Who knows?!)

(AND SO IT GOES ON "G, D, Em,D, C, D, G, D." UNTIL...)

Dum, dum, dum "No care in my mind" (or something like that!)
Does the guy sing through a fuzz box or what?!
There are are so many effects going on here that the song becomes "white noise"
(a hissing/screaming sort of sound. A bit like a school canteen).

Oh, Whatever....
