Alex, [Am] [B] short and [Em] sweet
[Am] [Em] Leave your boyfriend at [Am] home and the drinks [Em] on me next [G] week
He seems like [Dm] [G] a real good guy
[B] [D] [Em] And you're [Eb] only as good [Db] as you last [C] could be
I'll let your long hair [G] down
[C]
Like the prince, the brush you could ever use to paint [G] this town
Cause you know as well as I do
That [Em] you're [Eb] only as good as [Db] you last could [C] be
[Ab]
What will he do?
[Eb] Where [Fm] will he go?
[Cm] Alexandra don't really [Fm] know
Where [Cm] it is, [Eb] whenever [D] you are There too
[G] [Bm] [Am]
[G] To your [C] hair
May never need to [Em] outdo [G] yourself
And he'd laugh at jealous cries
[Em] All the sitting duck, [Eb] suck [Db] to his lust
[Ab] The bus got [Eb] on their throats
And it [Fm] was far to the street as [Cm] it was to the stars
[Fm]
And as [C] star dust [Cm] has peed my [Eb] shells on the [D]
park [Am] floor
[G] [Am]
[Bm]
[G] [B] [Em]
[D] [C] [E]
[F] [Bm]
[B] [Ab] What [Eb] have we done?
[A] Where [Fm] have we gone?
Nothing [Cm] of both and [Fm] beyond
[Cm] [Eb] Alexandra [D] is already [G] done
[C] I told you, honey short and sweet
It's a downside better than long and bitter
Don't you think?
[G]
Keep your feet wet and your eyes dry
Cause
[C] you're only as good as you [Fm] last could be
[C] Oh [Em] you're only as good as you [Db] last could [C] be
[Em] [Am]
[G]
[B] Sweet, thank you.
