DO
Bad lovers face to face in the morning
LAm
Shy apologies and polite regrets
FA
Slow dances that left no warning of
REm
Outraged glances and indiscreet yawning
FA SOL DO
Good manners and bad breath get you nowhere
DO LAm
Even presidents have newspaper lovers
FA FAm
Ministers go crawling under covers
DO LAm
She's no angel
DO FA
He's no saint
DO LAm FA
They're all covered up with white washed grease paint
(alt: white washed newsprint)
SOL
And you say...
CHORUS
DO FA SOL LAm
The teacher never told you anything but white lies
SIb DO/SIb
But you never see the lies
FA/LA FAm/SOL#
And you believe
SIb/SOL# DO/SOL
Oh you know you have been captured
FA LAm/MI
You feel so civilized
RE FA DO
And you look so pretty in your new lace sleeves
DO
The salty lips of the socialite sisters
LAm
With their continental fingers that have
FA
never seen working blisters
REm
Oh I know they've got their problems
FA SOL
I wish I was one of them
DO LAm
They say daddy's coming home soon
FA FAm
With his sergeant stripes and his Empire mug and spoon
DO LAm
No more fast buck
DO FA
And when are they gonna learn their lesson
DO LAm FA SOL
When are they gonna stop all of these victory processions
And you say...
(Chorus)
DO SIb
look so pretty in your new lace sleeves
