Intro
A#7 D# G# D# A#7 D#
[Verse 1]
A#7
I write songs about politicians
D# G#
Corruption and sedition
D# A#7
My songs they tiptoe over the line
D# A#7
My lecture in aptness
D# G#
My political incorrectness
D# A#7 D#
Mea culpa, all these songs, they are mine
[Verse 2]
G7
I may reach a crescendo
Cm
With a touch of innuendo
F A#
I throw in an item of news
D# A#7
There'll be songs of deep depression
D# G#
Like a karaoke session
D# A#7 D#
And I might do a song about you
[Interlude]
G# D# A#7 D#
[Verse 3]
A#7
There'll be one for my friend, Lorna
D# G#
She lives just 'round the corner
D# A#7
Now Lorna only ever listens to the blues
D# A#7
I have one for a friend in Chester
D# G#
Whose particular friend, Lester
D# A#7 D#
Has just left him to go back on the booze
[Verse 4]
G7
This over way inquisition
Cm
I'm an incompetent magician
F A#
I fail to saw my woman in two
D# A#7
While acting arty-tarty
D# A#7
At some late-night tinker's party
D# A#7 D#
So I might do this song about you
[Chorus 1]
A#7 D#
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
A#7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
D#
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
G#
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
D# A#7 D#
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
G#
Was it some smooth old talk?
D#
Or did you just take the dog for a big long walk?
G# A#7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
Oh no, you would not do that
D#
I want to know, I want to know
G#
I want to know, I want to know
D# A#7 D#
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Instrumental]
G# D# A#7 D# (3x)
[Verse 5]
A#7
Singing on right, for nada
D# G#
Being seven years old in Ireland
D# A#7
And I won the great big kish and romance
D# A#7
That time in the café on the coast road
D# G#
When delicious Sister Mary Joseph
D# A#7 D# G7
Sidled up to me and begged me for a dance (there ye are)
[Verse 6]
There was the pretty little acrobat
Cm
She gave me peppermint tea and a pretty little hat
F A#
She did fifteen cartwheels on my floor
D# A#7
That's a topic not too cosy
D# A#7
For a big jack-queen called Rosy
D# A#7 D#
Who's never heard or cried, "Collect them all!"
[Chorus 1]
A#7 D#
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
A#7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
D#
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
G#
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
D# A#7 D#
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
G#
Was it some smooth old talk?
D#
Hey, take the dog for a walk
G# A#7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
For the fifth time this week, baby
D#
I want to know, I want to know
G#
I want to know for sure
D# A#7 D# G# D# A#7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
