Kansas City, the fifties,

my parents would take us

to a lake in the country.
D

G
G

My brother and me, as daddy drove on.
C
C

We kids would get restless,
G
G

C
C

G
G

we had time on our hands,
Am

and we'd get a game going.
C

D

Scissors, paper, and stone.
Scissors cut paper.
C

G

Stone pounds them apart,
D

Em

but slapped under paper.
C

Am

D

That old stone's in the dark.
G

We play on together.

G

scissors, paper, and stone
F
F

I bet you played that game too,
C
C

it all depends on whether
you can guess what to do
G
G

By intuition, precognition,
or sheer dumb luck
F
F

To crush or cut or cover
the other player's move,
C
C

or else how fast you can react
G
G

to what your own opponent does.
F
F

You begin with clenched fists
C
C

and start to count, one,
G
G

I'm sittin' pulled upright
right off the bat
F
F

in the backseat of daddy's 57 Chevy sedan watchin' Eric like a hawk,
C
C

G
G

gotta I gotta, gotta second -guess him.
Two, we're definitely
pumping some adrenaline,
F
F

C
C

the two of us, totally focused on this.
G
G

Oblivious to Pat, Broon, Kroon,
and Tammy's in love on the radio.
F
F

Don't smell those strong,
unfiltered palmels.
C
C

My folks are both smoking
G
G

in the front seat at all anymore.
We don't even see the long,
low Raytown lanes building
F
F

with its big flashing sign
C
C

with the bowling pins going down
and up and down and up again
G
G

in an endless life cycle
F
F

of strikes and neon resurrections,
C
C

hmm, two and a half,
all tensed up on the edge
G
G

of the spring -coiled seat cushion,
hmm, three.
Ha! Gotcha!
Stone breaks scissors
D
D

G
G

And scissors cut paper
C
C

Stone breaks them apart
G
G

Em

Ah, but under that pa per

That old stone's in the dark
D

G
G

We'd play on together
C
C

G
G

One, two, three, show your hand
C
C

G
G

And my kid brother and me,
Am

C
C

we'd keep that game going
D
D

G
G

The scissors, paper, and stone
D
D

G
G

Be in love for the first time
C
C

G
G

Naive and afraid,
Em
Em

my heart fluttered like pa per
C
C

Am
Am

D
D

Beneath her keen gaze,
then she tore it in two
G
G

C
C

G
G

Her own heart turned to stone,
C
C

G
G

I felt scattered and tattered
Am
Am

C
C

Tossed off and alone,
D
D

G
G

destination unknown
F
F

Maybe you've played that game too
C
C

It's one nobody really wins in though
G
G

And the stakes are way, way higher
And the longer the tension builds up
Between the two players,
F
F

the greater's the pain
C
C

If you happen to lose, like I did
G
G

In the late 1960s
F

C
C

G
G

Oh, in the backseat of my daddy's cherry red Thunderbird with Eileen,
F
F

she was a raving Irish Catholic beauty,
actually the bolder sister
C
C

of a pair of devastating long
G
G

-haired identical red -headed twins,
both of whom I pursued like
F
F

two rare elusive butterflies
C
C

G
G

I had to add to my growing collection,
but sometime toward the
F
F

end of my junior year,
C
C

G
G

I got caught, and I fell for her hard.
F
F

Yeah, Eileen really turned me on.
C
C

I'm breathing hard there
G
G

in that Thunderbird.
Fridge kissing with her,
until it seems like
F
F

something's gotta give.
C
C

G
G

Her, hope. or maybe what it is
that's straining at the inseam
F
F

of my bell -bottom jeans
as we writhe around on the narrow
C
C

vinyl of the back seat
G
G

whoa she suddenly sits straight up
F
F

pushes me off and transfixes me with those two
C
C

sharp steely blue Irish Eisenbergs
G
G

which aren't smiling at all
and she balls up her fists
F
F

I can I tell she's determined
to say something big.
C
C

G
G

Tension's getting so tangible in the car,
you could cut it with a
pair of scissors.
F
F

And I brace myself,
C
C

G
G

and then all in a rush, she blurts it out.
She doesn't want to see me anymore.
F
F

It's not what she needs
for herself right now.
C
C

G
G

It's gotten too intense, so it's over.
Don't bother to call.
G
G

Scissors cut paper,
C
C

G
G

the stone breaks them apart.
Em
Em

But under that paper,
C
C

Am
Am

D
D

that old stone's in the dark.
G
G

We get back in the front seat
C
C

G
G

And I drive her home
C
C

G
G

and roll off down the road
Am
Am

To the loneliness zone
C
C

D
D

G
G

And go home and get stoned
Scissors cut paper you
