Tuning: D  

 G      G/F#            D/F          E7                  Am 
It's a god-awful small affair to the girl with the mousy hair 
         Am/G             D/F#                              G 
But her mother is yelling No and her father as told her to go 
          G/F#                 Dm/F 

But her friend is nowhere to be seen 
        E7                      Am 
as she walks through her sunken dream 
        Am/G                  D/F#   
To the seat with the clearest view  
                                Bb 

and she's hooked to the silver screen 
          Bbaug                Gm
But the film is a saddening bore 
            G#                  Eb 
For she's lived it ten times or more 
           G7                  Cm          Eb  

She could spit in the eyes of fools as they ask her to focus on 
  
Chorus: 
  C         F                   G 
Sailors, fighting in the dance hall 
 Am      Fm                   G  Gm                  Dm 

Oh man! look at those cavemen go,    it's a freakest show 
Fm                   C      F                    G 
Take a look at the Lawman, beating up the wrong guy 
A       Fm                     G  Gm                          Dm 
Oh man!  Wonder if he'll ever know   he's in the best selling show 
Fm                Am   C+  Am7  D7  F  G4  D 
Is there life on Mars? 
G      G/F#            Dm/F 
It's on Amerika's tortured brow 
         E7                  Am 
Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow 
         Am/G             D/F# 
Now the workers have struck for fame 
                              G 
Cause Lennon's on sale again 
          G/F#                 Dm/F 
See the mice in their million hordes 
        E7                       Am 
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads 
     Am/G                  D/F#   
Rule Brittania is out of bounds 
                             Bb 
To my mother, my dog and clowns 
         Bbaug                Gm
But the film is a saddening bore 
           G#                  Eb 
`Cause I wrote it ten times before 
          G7                  Cm           
It's about to be writ again 
     Eb 
As I ask you to focus on  ....Chorus
