Caustic Acrostic, by Fugazi
lights out
for the cynical sharps
for their wide-eyed foils
and all attendant props
supporters of flash and pan-friend fucks who
greast like cops throwing
round their body weight and
i feel dangerous and vexed
swinging two ton second guess
and every motion just cuts
too cruel too cruel
and the implication is that
you're implicated
like a caustic acrostic
spelling out your name
lights out cos i can
see in the dark
sidewind my way to the mark of
fuse lines gas-wet for a spark
i crash i burn
i've fuly lost it anyway
and you're lost it anyway
and you're nowhere
lights out loser

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official FUGAZI tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
