[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
         C                     F
It's the time of year now that spring is in the air
           G                       C
When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair
                        F
Make another song for moronic holidays
         G                 C
That nauseate-ate-ate in a million different ways
                                F
From the shores of Spain to the coast of southern France
          D                               G
No matter where you hide you just can't escape this dance
[Chorus]
G      C                           G
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose
                         C
Buy a jumbo jet and then bury all your clothes
                                  F
Paint your left knee green then extract your wisdom teeth
       C                     G                 C
Form a string quartet and pretend your name is Keith
Up 1 tone
[Verse 2]
A        D                    A
Skin yourself alive, learn to speak Arapaho
                         D
Climb inside a dog and behead an eskimo
                        G
Eat a Renault 4, wear salami in your ears
     D                    A                   D      A
Casserole your gran, disembowel yourself with spears
[Bridge]
    D                       G
The disco is migrating, the sound is loud and grating
     E                       A
It's truly nauseating, let's do the dance again
Up 1 tone
[Chorus]
B      E                           B
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose
                                 E
Yes you'll hear this song in the holiday discos
                             A
And there's no escape in the clubs or in the bars
          E                     B            E
You would hear this song if you holidayed in Mars
Up 1 tone
[Verse 3]
C#       F#                   C#
Skin yourself alive, learn to speak arapaho
                         F#
Climb inside a dog and behead an eskimo
                                         B
Now you've heard it once your brain will spring a leak
               F#                       C#             F#
And though you hate this song you'll be humming it for weeks
[Outro] up 1/2 tone to fade
D      G                           D
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up you nose
                         G
Buy a jumbo jet and then bury all your clothes
                     C
La la la la la la la la la la
      G              D           G
