Band: RUFiO
CD: 1985
Song: Science Fiction
Label: Nitro
Tabbed by: Chris

I heard this on Warped Tour 2003.  Some of the rhythm is hard to tab, but I'll try.
I gave the rhythm part and a normal part.  The rhythm mught be hard ot understand, 
so you can just try the regular part.  It sounds fine either way.

x=mute

I suggest using a pick to get that clarity in the song.

	hey i forgot to say-> I LIKE LIL 5 YEAR OLDS too!! oops i mean ... tHERES THIS BAND CALLED "LEFTOVER CRACK" from new york and if u love punk rock u should check em out cause theyre sounds as punk as it gets these days. definitely worth checkin out!! just beware cause its addictive material u should definitely read their lyrics too and visit leftovercrack.com (they were formerly known as "CHOKING VICTIM")

	if there's one thing this song isn't, it's subtle. Its message is clear and to need an explanation probably means you have an IQ somewhat similar to that of a turnip. Great song, and great guitar riff by the way, that opening one.

	This day and age, we (girls especially) are constantly bombarded with the ideas that you have to look and act a certain way to be accepted. This song is really encouraging to me because it reminds me that material things are all temporary and the "Perfect Life" isn't the bouquet of roses it is portrayed as.
