When You're A Transformer

Bm
Y & S:  (Both start singing at the same time with different words)

Scod:   Don't I start this?
Yon:    No!
Scod:   No, you do! Oh yeah, sorry. My fault.
Yon:    You can join in if you want... but don't fuck it up.

        Bm                                            D
Yon:    They say that if you try, you'll achieve your dreams,
                                        Em
        But who will pay the price in between?
                       F#
Tripod: Glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung,
                        Bm
        Glu-glung glung glung!

Gatesy: That's pretty good.

        Bm                                D
Gatesy: You'd hope that being family was enough,
                                 Em
        But circumstances can be tough.
                       F#
Tripod: Glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung,

        Glu-glung glung!
                    G
Scod:   You have to choose,
                            A(let ring)
        And one of you must lose...

        Bm                    D
        On the world of Transformers,
                             Em
        The man Transformers are in charge.
                  F#
Tripod: You never hear about,
                         Bm
        The lady Transformers.
        Bm                                D
Yon:    But they do exist, and they often come...
                                Em
        ... in pairs, not \"come\"...
Yon:    I don't mean...!
Gatesy: They exist!
        F#
Y & G:  Exist, exist, exist, exist!

                     G
Tripod: The sisters' names,
                              A(let ring)
        Are Weapontron and... Kate?
                         G
        And through this game,
                                    A
        Their love has turned to... hate?

                           D
        When you're a Transformer,
                                        A
        You will see that some things never change.
                   G
        They might re-arrange,
               A
        Into a car, a truck, a plane.
                      D
        But if you're Weapontron and Kate,
                      A
        You might not have so much luck,
                      G
        You might not turn into a truck.
        F#                          Bm
        How does a Transformer get ahead,
                 A                              D
        When the thing they turn into is fairy bread?

        Bm                                D
Yon:    Weapontron and Kate had to find a skill,
                                      Em
        Because they couldn't fight or kill.
                  F#
Tripod: And their transformations,
                             Bm
        Weren't that much to see.

        Bm                            D
Scod:   But they had photographic memory,
                           Em
        And lots of mental energy.
                    F#
Tripod: And so they entered,
                               G
        A Transformer spelling bee,
                                  A
Scod:   Which caused sibling rivalry.

        (Scod plays Em Bm throughout the spelling bee)

Gatesy: So, young sisters! It is down to you two. You have beaten all the
        other pissweak Transformers, including the formidable one that turned
        into a doughnut - Doughnutron.
        Weapontron, spell \"Xerox\"!

Yon:    Xerox. Triple-Z...
Gatesy: (Buzzer noise)
Yon:    No, no, no, no, no! X... Z...
Gatesy: (Buzzer noise)

        Okay, you are out of the game. If Kate wins, there certainly will be
        Something for Kate.

        (To audience) I wrote that one!
Scod:   He insisted that joke go in.
Yon:    There was no time to stop him!
Gatesy: They don't give these jobs to monkeys.

        Kate! Spell \"haemorrhoids\"!
Yon:    Haemorrhoids. H... M...
Gatesy: (Buzzer noise)
        Wrong! But in order for this song to make sense... Kate, you win!

                            D
Tripod: When you're a Transformer,
                                        A
        You will see that some things never change.
                   G
        They might re-arrange,
               A
        Into a car, a truck, a plane.
                      D
        But if you're Weapontron and Kate,
                      A
        You might not have so much luck,
                      G
        You might not turn into a truck.
        F#                          Bm
        How does a Transformer get ahead,
                 A                              D
        When the thing they turn into is fairy bread?
