Intro
D#7 G# C# G# D#7 G#
[Verse 1]
D#7
I write songs about politicians
G# C#
Corruption and sedition
G# D#7
My songs they tiptoe over the line
G# D#7
My lecture in aptness
G# C#
My political incorrectness
G# D#7 G#
Mea culpa, all these songs, they are mine
[Verse 2]
C7
I may reach a crescendo
Fm
With a touch of innuendo
A# D#
I throw in an item of news
G# D#7
There'll be songs of deep depression
G# C#
Like a karaoke session
G# D#7 G#
And I might do a song about you
[Interlude]
C# G# D#7 G#
[Verse 3]
D#7
There'll be one for my friend, Lorna
G# C#
She lives just 'round the corner
G# D#7
Now Lorna only ever listens to the blues
G# D#7
I have one for a friend in Chester
G# C#
Whose particular friend, Lester
G# D#7 G#
Has just left him to go back on the booze
[Verse 4]
C7
This over way inquisition
Fm
I'm an incompetent magician
A# D#
I fail to saw my woman in two
G# D#7
While acting arty-tarty
G# D#7
At some late-night tinker's party
G# D#7 G#
So I might do this song about you
[Chorus 1]
D#7 G#
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
D#7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
G#
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
C#
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
G# D#7 G#
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
C#
Was it some smooth old talk?
G#
Or did you just take the dog for a big long walk?
C# D#7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
Oh no, you would not do that
G#
I want to know, I want to know
C#
I want to know, I want to know
G# D#7 G#
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Instrumental]
C# G# D#7 G# (3x)
[Verse 5]
D#7
Singing on right, for nada
G# C#
Being seven years old in Ireland
G# D#7
And I won the great big kish and romance
G# D#7
That time in the café on the coast road
G# C#
When delicious Sister Mary Joseph
G# D#7 G# C7
Sidled up to me and begged me for a dance (there ye are)
[Verse 6]
There was the pretty little acrobat
Fm
She gave me peppermint tea and a pretty little hat
A# D#
She did fifteen cartwheels on my floor
G# D#7
That's a topic not too cosy
G# D#7
For a big jack-queen called Rosy
G# D#7 G#
Who's never heard or cried, "Collect them all!"
[Chorus 1]
D#7 G#
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
D#7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
G#
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
C#
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
G# D#7 G#
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
C#
Was it some smooth old talk?
G#
Hey, take the dog for a walk
C# D#7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
For the fifth time this week, baby
G#
I want to know, I want to know
C#
I want to know for sure
G# D#7 G# C# G# D#7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
