It's a god-awful small affair

To the girl with the mousy hair

And her daddy has told her to go

But her friend is nowhere to be seen

Now she walks through her sunken dream.
Fm Fbaug G#
To the seat with the clearest view
A#
And she's hooked to the silver screen
[Pre-Chorus]
A#aug A# D#m
But the film is a saddening bore
Fb
cause she's seen it ten times or more
B D# G#m
She could spit in the eyes of fools
A
As they ask her to focus on

Sailors fighting in the dance hall

To my mother, my dog, and clowns
