intro: B A E A (x6)
B A E A
I could have read
B A E A
A poem called
B A E A
Ozymandias
B A E A
To her instead
B A E A
I live for the moment
B A E A
It was a futile
B A E A
Gesture anyway
B A E A
I was here
B A E A
And she was here
B A E A
And being broad
B A E A
Of mind and hips
B A E A
We did the only
B A E A
Thing possible
E D C#5/E D (x2)
E D C#5/E D

E D C#5/E D
I had to go to work and she had laced my coffee with
E D C#5/E D
acid!
E D C#5/E D (x8, keyboard solo enters 3rd time)
E D C#5/E D

E D

C#5/E D E D C#5/E D
Well, I apologise for disliking it intensely
E D C#5/E D
But it's understandable that ugly people have got complexes
E D C#5/E D E D C#5/E D
I mean it seems to me that ugly people don't have a chance
E D C#5/E D
