[Verse]
Eb      Eb/D                     Bbm/F
It's a god-awful small affair
       C7                       Fm
To the girl with the mousy hair
       Fm/E                      Fm/Eb
But her mummy is yelling "No"
        Bb7                         Eb
And her daddy has told her to go
        Eb/D                        Bbm/F
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
        C7                             Fm
Now she walks through her sunken dream
       Fm/E                         Fm/Eb
To the seat with the clearest view
          Bb7                          Gb
And she's hooked to the silver screen
        Gb/F                       Ebm
But the film is a saddening bore
          E                        B
For she's lived it ten times or more
          Eb7                        Abm
She could spit in the eyes of fools
        B7
As they ask her to focus on

[Chorus]
Ab       Db
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Fm      Dbm                   Eb  Ebm
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
                   Bbdim     Dbm
It's the freakiest show
                   Ab
Take a look at the Lawman
Db
Beating up the wrong guy
Fm      Dbm                       Eb   Ebm
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
                           Bbdim    Dbm
He's in the best selling show
                 Fm   Fm/E  Fm/Eb   Bb7
Is there life on Mars?

[Bridge]
Eb                C7                Fm                Adim7

[Verse 2]
Eb      Eb/D                     Bbm/F
It's on America's tortured brow
       C7                       Fm
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
       Fm/E                      Fm/Eb
Now the workers have struck for fame
        Bb7                         Eb
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
        Eb/D                        Bbm/F
See the mice in their million hordes
        C7                             Fm
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
       Fm/E                         Fm/Eb
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
          Bb7                          Gb
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
        Gb/F                       Ebm
But the film is a saddening bore
          E                        B
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
          Eb7                        Abm
It's about to be writ again
B7
As I ask you to focus on

[Chorus]
Ab       Db
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Fm      Dbm                   Eb  Ebm
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
                   Bbdim     Dbm
It's the freakiest show
                   Ab
Take a look at the Lawman
Db
Beating up the wrong guy
Fm      Dbm                       Eb   Ebm
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
