A A7 D7 A
Didn't I see you down in San Antone on a hot and dusty night?
D A D7 A
You were eating eggs in Sammy's when the black man there drew his knife
D7 A
Or you drowned that Jew in Rampton as he washed his sleevless shirt
D7 A
You know that Spanish speaking gentleman, the one that we call Kurt
C#m Bm D A
Come now, gentleman, I know there's some mistake
C#m Bm D A
How forgetful I'm becoming now you fixed your business straight
A D7 A
I remember you in Hemlock Road in nineteen fifty six
D A D7 A
You were a faggy little leather boy with a smaller piece of stick
You were a lashing smashing hunk of a man,
D A
your sweat shined sweet and strong
D7 A Bm
Your organ's working perfectly, but there's a part
D E7
that's not screwed on
A E7 A E A E7 A E
A D A
Weren't you at the Coke Convention back in nineteen sixty five
D A
You're the misbred grey executive I've seen heavily advertised
D A
You're the great grey man whose daughter licks policemen's buttons clean
D A
You're the man who squats behind the man
D E
who works the soft machine
C#m Bm D A
Come now, gentlemen, your love is all I crave
C#m Bm D
You'll still be in the circus when I'm laughing,
A
laughing in my grave
A D7 A
When the old men do all the fighting and the young men all look on
D A D A
And the young girls eat their mother's meat from tubes of plasticon
D A
Be wary of these my gentle friends of all the skin you breed
D7 A
To have that tasty habit,
D E
it's not the hands that bleed
A D7 A
Well remember who you say you are but keep your noses clean
D A D A
Boys will be boys and play with toys. So be strong with your beast
D A
Oh Rosie dear, don'cha think it's queer. So stop me if you please
D7 A
The baby's dead, my lady said
D G A
You gentlemen will you all work for me
