(Intro: G5   *  F5   *  *  C5  C5  D5  D5 ) 

G5    B5        E5    E5 
How sweet to be an idiot 
C5       E5  Eb5  
As harmless as a cloud 
E5                B5 
Too small to hide the sun 
A5     A5    D5  D5 
Almost poking fun  
G5        B5  E5 
At the warm but insecure  
E5 A5    A5  D5 D5 A5  D5 
untidy  crowd  
 
 
G5    B5        E5   E5 
How sweet to be an idiot 
C5  E5         Eb5 
And dip my brain in joy  
E5             B5 
Children laughing at my back  
A5  A5   D5  D5 
With no fear of attack  
G5      B5  E5    E5  A5    
As much retaliation as a   toy  
A5 D5 D5 
 
G5    B5        E5    D5 
How sweet to be an idiot  
G5     (  *  F5  *  *  C5  C5 D5 D5 ) 
How sweet 
D5 
I tiptoe down the street 
                 
Smile at everyone I meet

A5  
But suddenly a scream  
B5 
smashes through my dream  
E5 
Fee fi fo fum ,  
 
I smell the blood of an asylum  
A5 
Blood of an asylum?  
A5 
But mother, I'm playing so 
A5 
beautifully! 
                      F5 
Ha ha! Listen! Ha ha! 
E5 
Fee fi fo fum ,  
 
I smell the blood of an asylum 
    A5 
Hey you! 
A5 
You're such a pedant! 
    A5  
You got as much brain as a  
F5 
dead ant! 
E5 
As much imagination as a  
 
caravan site! 
            D5 
But I still love you,  
      D5 
still love you,  
 
oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, how  
G5       B5  
swee-ee-eet  
         E5    D5              
to be an idiot
