[F] [Am] It's a god-awful small [A] affair
[Eb] To [D] the girl with the [Gm] mousy hair
But [Bb] her mummy is yelling [C] no
And her daddy has told her to [F] go
[Am] But her friend is nowhere [Eb] to be seen
[D] Now she walks [D] through her [Gm] sunken dream
[Bb] To the seat with the [C] clearest view
And she's hooked to the [Eb] silver screen
But [E] the film is a saddening [F] bore
For [Gb] she's lived it ten times or [Db] more
She [A] could spit in the eyes of [Bbm] fools
[Db] As they ask her to focus [Bb] on Say [Eb] hello
She's hiding in the [Gm] dance hall Oh [Gb] man
Look at those [F] gay men go
[Fm] It's the [Cm] freakiest show
[Ebm] Take a [Bb] look at her Oh [Eb] man
She's feeding off the [Gm] wrong guy
If [Gb] you [F] never know
[Fm] Who's in the [Cm] dance hall each show
[Ebm] Is there [Gm] life on
[Gb] [Bb] [Em] Mars
[F]
[Gb] It's [Gm] [B] [Am]
[Bb] [Bbm] [Bb] [F] [Am] on America's [Eb] tortured brow
[D] That Mickey Mouse has grown [Gm] up a cow
[F] Now [Bb] the workers have struck for [C] fame
As Lenin's on sale [F] again
See [Am] the mice in their million [Eb] hordes
[D] From Ibiza to the north [Gm] abroad
[Bb] Rupert Tanner is out of [C] bounds
To my mother, my dog and [Eb] clowns
[E] But the film is a [Fm] saddening bore
[Ab] Cause I wrote it ten times [Db] or more
[A] It's about to be written [Bbm] again
[Db] As they ask her to [Bb] focus on Say [Eb] hello
She's hiding in [Gm] the dance hall Oh [Gb] man
Look at those gay men [F] go
[Fm] It's [Cm] the freakiest show
[Ebm] Take [Bb] a look at her
[Eb] Oh man
She's feeding off the [Gm] wrong guy
If [Gb] you never [F] know
[Fm] Who's in the [Cm] dance hall each show
[Ebm] Is there [Gm] life on
[Gb] [Bb] [E] Mars
