[Verse 1]
GYou don't know what you want
You Cdon't believe in Danything you Gsee
You're Cwrapped up in your Down potato Gcrop
You're Cliving in your Down Pacific GpondG/F#  
And Emwho am I to Ctell you that it's Gall up the Dcreek
EmWho am I to Ctell you that your Ghead's a little Dweak
You'd Conly say that you ain’t reached your Dpeak.
[Chorus 1]
GUptight DBasil, You Creally razzle Ddazzle
in the Gmorning Dtime,
When the Cwashing's on the Dline,
GUptight DBasil, you realCly razzle Ddazzle
But beGfore you blow your Dhead
don't forCget to make the Dbed.
[Verse 2]
GIt's a big mystery,
Why Cyou ain't a Dstar shining bGright,
CLighting up our Dmisty winter Gnight
CCrunching up the Dclouds with one big Gbite,G/F#  
Ah Emyou've got all the Ctalent all you Gneed now is the Dluck
EmEveryone's Cbehind you boy we Gknow you've got the Dpluck
And it's Conly twenty-seven stories Dup.
[Chorus 2]
GUptight DBasil, You Creally razzle Ddazzle
in the Gmorning Dtime,
When the Cclothes are on the Dline,
GUptight DBasil, You Creally razzle Ddazzle,
But beGfore you make your Dleap
there's the Ckitchen floor to Dsweep.
[Instrumetal break]

[Chorus 3]
GUptight DBasil, You Creally razzle Ddazzle

When the Cwashing's on the Dline,
GUptight DBasil, you realCly razzle Ddazzle
But beGfore you blow your Dtop
don't forCget to wind the Dclock.
