We are the 8 0 1
G# D#
We are the central shaft - And we are
C# G#
here to let you take advantage
D# C#
Of our lack of craft
G# D#
Certain streets have certain corners
C# G#
Sooner or later, we'll turn yours
D# C#
We are the 8 0 1
G# D#
We are the central shaft - And thus through-
C# G#
-out two years we've crossed the ocean
D# C#
in our little craft (Row! Row! Row!)
G# D#
Now we're on the telephone
C# G#
Making final arrangements (Ding! Ding!)
D# C#
We are the 8 0 1
G# D#
We are the central shaft
C# G# G#
D# C#
Looking for a certain ratio
G# G#
Someone must have left it underneath the carpet
D# C#
Looking up and down the radio
G# G#
Oh-oh, nothing there this time
D# C#
Looking for a certain ratio
G# G#
Someone said they saw it parking in a car-lot
D# C#
Looking up and down the radio
G# G#
Oh-oh, nothing there this time
D# C#
Going back down to the radio
G# G#
Oh, oh - oh, oh - oh, oh - here we go!

Either keep that up for the last part, or switch to chords.
I like F#, C#, E, G# when alone, or D#, C#, B, F# if there is F# bass.
D#
We are the table, the captain's table
A#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
C#
We are the losers, we are the bruisers
G#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
D#
We are the diners, the final diners
A#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
C#
Most of us tinkers, some of us tailors,
G#
And we've got candlesticks, and lots of cocktail sticks
D#
We saw the lovers, the modern lovers
A#
And they looked very good, they looked as if they could
C#
We are the neighbours, the nosy neighbours
G#
We think just like we would, we think just like we should.
Oh, oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
