Verse 2: ( No Guitar )
I lay out in the sun too long
and burned off all of my skin
I felt so dizzy, I got into the car
and got into an accident
Out of the burning wreckage I fell
wanting only to lay there I fell

Verse 3:
I became friendly with Ruy Lopez
the author of works on chess

He won't even talk to me now
but I don't care cos I'm sick of that guy
and I need to
