Song

Moot Point

"For Gary"

Moot Point is a local ska/punk band, and I liked this song so I figured

I'd tab it out. Enjoy

(Intro x 13)

(Play Intro/Verse until Chorus)

My life a situational comedy

Sit in front of the TV and watch me

As my life unfolds in front of your eyes

And you can hear it all in stereo Hi-Fi

Not that long ago

Was on a TV show

It was called Diff'rent Strokes

And people laughed at my jokes

Not that long ago

Was on a TV show

It was called Diff'rent Strokes

And people laughed at my jokes.

(Chorus riff x 4)

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

(Intro/Verse x 6)

(etc, you get the idea...)

Well, it wasn't long after

The show collapsed, tried to become a movie actor

Found out whenever I got in the car that

"What you talkin bout, Willis?" doesn't go that far

Was on a thousand Christmas specials and some game shows

Quickly found out that the TV industry blows

A cartoon show that didn't work

I was an angel sent to earth and

It all went by so fast

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

Soon I got into a lawsuit with my parents

They tried to take away my money, make me look bad

Was on the cover of every tabloid on the market

Tried to forget but people just can't get over it

Soon I was hated

Seems I was dated

Why am I hated?

Why am dated?

Why am I dated?

Why am I hated?

Just want to dissappear

From all the people I hear.

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?

WHERE ARE YOU GARY?
