[Verse 1]
A# Dm/A Gdim7
It's a god-awful small affair
G7
To the girl with the mousy hair
Cm Cbaug D#
But her mummy is yelling "No"
F
And her daddy has told her to go
A# Dm/A Gdim7
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
G7
Now she walks through her sunken dream.
Cm Cbaug D#
To the seat with the clearest view
F
And she's hooked to the silver screen
[Pre-Chorus]
Faug F A#m
But the film is a saddening bore
Cb
cause she's seen it ten times or more
F# A# D#m
She could spit in the eyes of fools
E
As they ask her to focus on
[Chorus]
D# G#
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Cm7 Cbaug A#
Oh man! look at those cavemen go
A#m Fm7
It's the freakiest show
G#m7 D#
Take a look at the lawman
G#
Beating up the wrong guy

Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know

He's on the best selling show

Is there life on Mars?

It's on America's tortured brow

That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow

Now the workers have struck for fame

'Cause Lennon's on sale again
A# Dm/A Gdim7
See the mice with their million hordes
G7
From Ibiza to the norfolk broads
Cm Cbaug D#
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
F
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
[Pre-Chorus]
Faug F A#m
But the film is a saddening bore

cause she writ it ten times or more
F# A# D#m
It's about to be writ again
E
As I ask you to focus on
