To the girl with the mousy hair

And her daddy has told her to go

Now she walks through her sunken dream.
Em Ebaug G
To the seat with the clearest view
A
And she's hooked to the silver screen
[Pre-Chorus]
Aaug A Dm
But the film is a saddening bore

She could spit in the eyes of fools
G#
As they ask her to focus on

Take a look at the lawman

Is there life on Mars?

See the mice with their million hordes

From Ibiza to the norfolk broads

Rule Britannia is out of bounds
A
To my mother, my dog, and clowns

It's about to be writ again

As I ask you to focus on
