B
All of those wild American bilinguals
Asus2 E/B B
Who talk to you in Paris of their lonely lives
B
School days and last days out there in the Midwest
Asus2 E/B B
They climb on their liners and rejoin their wives
[Bridge]
F#m
Walking down boulevards electric eyes
Gmaj7
Would gaze at the waveforms and gasp at their size
B B [break]
Let them be lonely and say you don't care
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 A/B
Astroboy, I'm watching the proles on parade
Gmaj7 A/B
Astroboy, I'm watching the proles on parade

B
Una with long hair will stand by your side
Asus2 E/B B
And the friends who were hungry could swallow your pride
B
Chromium pets that video screens would show
Asus2 E/B B
Pictures of helplessness old kings and queens
[Bridge]
F#m
Radio stations that fade as in dust
Gmaj7
All their transmitters are crumbling with rust
B B [break]
Let them be broken and say you don't care
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 A/B
Astroboy, I'm watching the proles on parade
Gmaj7 A/B
Astroboy, I'm watching the proles on parade
Gmaj7 A/B
Astroboy, I'm watching the proles on parade
