LA LA7 RE7
Didn't I see you down in San Antone on a hot and dusty night?
LA RE7
You were eating eggs in Sammy's when the black man there drew his knife.
LA LA RE7
Or you drowned that Jew in Rampton as he washed his sleevless shirt.
RE7 LA
You know that Spanish speaking gentleman, the one that we call Kurt.
SIm SOL LA
DO#m SIm RE LA
Come now, gentleman, I know there's some mistake
DO#m SIm RE LA
How forgetful I'm becoming now you fixed your business straight
LA RE7 LA
I remember you in Hemlock Road in nineteen fifty six
LA RE7 LA
You were a faggy little leather boy with a smaller piece of stick
LA
You were a lashing smashing hunk of a man,
RE LA
your sweat shined sweet and strong
RE7 LA SIm
Your organ's working perfectly, but there's a part
SOL MI7
that's not screwed on
LA MI7 LA MI LA MI7 LA MI
LA RE LA
Weren't you at the Coke Convention back in nineteen sixty five
You're the misbred grey executive I've seen heavily advertised
LA RE LA
You're the great grey man whose daughter licks policemen's buttons clean
RE LA
You're the man who squats behind the man
SIm SOL LA
who works the soft machine
DO#m SIm RE LA
Come now, gentlemen, your love is all I crave
DO#m SIm RE
You'll still be in the circus when I'm laughing,
LA
laughing in my grave
LA RE7 LA
Well remember who you say you are but keep your noses clean
LA RE LA
Boys will be boys and play with toys. So be strong with your beast
LA RE LA
Oh Rosie dear, don'cha think it's queer. So stop me if you please
RE7 LA
The baby's dead, my lady said.
SIm SOL LA
You gentlemen will you all work for me
LA RE7 LA
When the old men do all the fighting and the young men all look on
LA RE LA
And the young girls eat their mother's meat from tubes of plasticon
LA RE LA
Be wary of these my gentle friends of all the skin you breed
RE7 LA
To have that tasty habit,
SIm SOL LA
it's not the hands that bleed
