[F#] Ba ba dee ba
I wandered lonely as a cloud
Till I came upon this dirty street
[B] [D#m] I've never seen a stranger crowd
So many guardians on squeaky feet
[C#] Not in your [G#m] early [D#m] pacing
[C#] But [G#m] nonchalant [D#m] embracing
[F#] Each [C#] artifice [G#m] [D#m] disgracing
One facing me [C#] moves to [F#] say adieu
His skin's all covered in slimy lumps
With lips that slide across each chin
[D#m] His twisted limbs like rubber stumps
Are waved and welcomed, say please join in
[C#] My [G#m] grip must be [D#m] flipping
[C#] Cause his handshake [G#m] keeps [D#m] slipping
[F#] My hopes keep [G#m] on [A#m] dipping
And his [F#] lips keep on smiling all the time
[G#m] [B]

[Cm]
[Gm] Shhh
You [Fm] get high if you got the drive
[A#] To see Dr.
Diver if or if not
Back here without your [G] windscreen [Cm] or handphone
To [Gm] face the doctor at his humble table
[Fm] He said understand fire
That's the end of your [A#] fire
Don't delay Dr.
Dick
Or watch his scum down [F] time and [A#]
[G]
[C] [Cm] time again
He places the number [D] into a [Cm]
tube
[Gm] It's a yellow plastic [C] Shoopy doo
[Cm] It's as though your fingers may tingle
You'll be safe and I'll be [G] cold
[C] Suddenly a black cloud come down from the sky
[G#] It's a super-sized black bird that's shocking [G] FLY

rhythm brings on darkness and night
He flies right down
Gives [Em] me one hell of a fright
[G] He [C] [Cm] takes the tube right out of my hands
[C] Man, I gotta find where that black bird [F#] lives
Look here John, I've got to run
I need you now, you're going to come
[D#m] He says to me, now can't you see
Where the raven flies, there's jeopardy
[B] [F#] We've [C#] been killed [G#m] on the [D#m] [C#] couch
Man, I'm sick [G#m] with your [D#m] grouch
[C#] I'll not [G#m] risk [D#m] my honey pouch
Which might such, but we're [F#] some very low
He
[G#m] walks away and leaves [B] me once again
[D] [E] Even though I [B] never learn
I hope he showed you some concern

[Cm] in the agony of slip of faith
I [Gm] pray my own, the courage will sustain
[Cm] [Fm] Chases on the face is hard
[A#] But I'm running so very hard with everything
[Cm] He leads me down an underpass
[Gm] Though it's nine roads, he still flies very [Cm] fast
[F#] [Fm] When the tunnel stops
[A#] Can't sight out the tube
Just as it [Cm] drops
I'm on [G] top of the bank, too steep to [B] climb
I see it hit the water, [C#] just in [B]
[F#] time
[B] To [F#] watch you float [B] away
Watch [F#] you float [E] away
