A5                     D5   E5 
 Hey, hey,  ah, ha, haaa
A5                       
 Saturday is shopping day-
   |                          |                     | 
 I drive my car but there's no place to park it
D5              E5             A5          
 No respect for supermen in the supermarket

 A5                                                
I guess there must be trouble but I not been alerted
D5                 E5          A5                  
 looking round the store it was all deserted and I'm

A5                               
 stranded here with my empty basket
D5          E5           C#5        F#5   2/4  4/4
 so full of questions but nowhere to ask it

D5                   Eb5                    
   By the one way out,     strange voice shouts

     "Don't let that good man out!"

            one way,  
            one day

[Verse 2] (1:38-)

 Oh, there's an old man on the floor so I summon my charm
 I say "Hey scumbag, has there been an alarm?"
 
 he said "Yeh, 'been selling off eternal youth
 they all got afraid 'cos I'm the living proof

 My name is Einstein do you know time is a curve?"
 I said "Stop old man! you got a nerve

 'cos there's only one rule that I observe
 Time is money, and money I serve"


(Bridge) (2:24-) 


[Chorus 2] (2:32-)

"Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
   one way, one day" (repeat three times)

   get a-long with man   -     kind
