Verse 2:
          D5         E5           D5
        There goes Fred with his hands on his head
                    G5           A5        D5
        'Cause he thinks he's heard the bomb
             A5          F#5
        And here comes Superspade [US single: Superman]
             B5     E5      A5
        Who really puts it on
 
        It's lots of fun and I love to run

        Up and down the stairs

        I make as much noise as I want

        And no one ever cares
 
[repeat chorus]
 
Verse 3:
 
        There's Carl over there with his funny old hair

        And he's never sad at all

        And when I grow up I want to run

        As fast as my friend Paul
 
        There's the prettiest girl in the whole wide world

        And her name is Melody Mend

        And here comes Ma with Brother Tom

        Who's probably my best friend
                  Bb5
        My best friend
