Enjoy another fantastic piece of the one and only Tiiiim Minchin!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

This first movement is called: 
Feminism

VERSE
                           Eb (x43121@3)           
I believe that women have the right
   FTo (133211@1)walk the streets at night
    DmAnd (xx0231@1)not be afraid 
                  Gmfor (355333@1)their lives

I believe that a woman has the right
To choose what happens to her body
Without suffering the judgement
Of the conservative right

And I believe that women have the right
to wear the clothes they like
Without being treated 
like dirt

And I believe we men are pathetic
how we seem to judge aesthetic
As the measure 
of a woman's worth

BRIDGE
        Eb7 (x32310@4)                                           DmI'm (xx0231@1)ashamed on behalf of my sex
                   Cm7    F (133211@1)       BbFor (x1333x@1)making women feel like objects

CHORUS
                                  Eb (x43121@3)   F (133211@1)            BbFuck (x1333x@1)I love boobs though, I just really love them
                                  Eb (x43121@3)   F (133211@1)            Bb (x1333x@1)    DmFuck (xx0231@1)I love boobs though, I just wanna rub them
                                  Eb (x43121@3)                                   FThey're (133211@1)just so jooby, they make me feel groovy
        Dm (xx0231@1)                      GmI (355333@1)would rather watch boobs than a movie
           Eb (x43121@3)F (133211@1)                 Bb/Gm
Be doop be doo. I just really like boobs.



And this second movement is called:
Poverty (altruism)

VERSE (Eb F Dm Gm)
I believe people are entitled 
to basic human rights
Whether they are rich 
or they're poor

I believe a world where no children 
are starving
Is a world 
worth fighting for

And I try to remind myself
Even when I'm struggling
How incredibly lucky 
I am

And I don't think it's ok
That the luxuries I crave
Should come at the expense 
of my fellow man

BRIDGE (Eb7 Dm Cm7 F Bb)
I'm sure I could give a little more
To alleviate the suffering of the poor.



CHORUS (Eb F Bb, Eb F Bb Dm, Eb F Dm Gm, Eb F Bb)
Fuck I love boobs though
I just really love them
I don't really mind if I am behind
Below or above them

They're just so jubbly
They make me feel lovely
I'd rather own boobs than a pub, be
Doop be doop doop doo doo doo
I really love boobs



The third movement:
Enviromentalism

VERSE (Eb F Dm Gm)
I believe the that planet we live in
Is a living organism
And we must 
treat her carefully

I don't think we can assume
We can just go on consuming
Her resources 
indefinitely

BRIDGE (Eb7 Dm Cm7 F Bb)
The world's not a bottomless pit
And we can all do our little bit

CHORUS (Eb F Bb, Eb F Bb Dm, Eb F Dm Gm, Eb F Bb)
Fuck I love boobs though
I just really care for 'em
They're equally fun
When they're aged 21
Or octogenarian
They're just so flappy
They make me feel happy
I'd rather eat boobs than a bap, be
Doop be doo
I just really love boobs

OUTRO
Evolutionary theory says bosoms 
are buttock-like protrusions
Designed to tempt men 
in situations

When they can't get a glimpse 
of your bum
I find such 
hypotheses dumb It's like the one that says

EbLipstick (x43121@3)is for 
           Fmaking (133211@1)your lips look more
         BbLike (x1333x@1)the lips 
         Dm (xx0231@1)   
of a happy 
  Gmvagina (355333@1)
EbSince (x43121@3)they said that I can't 
Ebmlook (xx4342@1)my great aunt
       FIn (133211@1)the eye
Dm (xx0231@1)                            GmWhy'd (355333@1)they have to say that, oh why?

Eb (x43121@3)                 DmFrom (xx0231@1)that first little suck of colostrum
        Eb (x43121@3)                          DmTo (xx0231@1)the grope of the the nurse in the old people's hostel
       Cm (x3101x@1)    Dm (xx0231@1)Eb (x43121@3)    Ebdim (2312xx@1)FWe're (133211@1)just fucking monkeys in     shoes

Bb  Gm  Eb
And I
     F (133211@1)         Bb (x1333x@1)  Gm (355333@1)EbWill (x43121@3)always love boobs
       Eb (x43121@3)name="chord_133211@1">F        BbI (x1333x@1)will always love boobs

This is as accurate as I could get it. Comments are welcome!

Cheers :)
