C           Dm     F
A devastating backstroke
F       G        C
All the way from France
C           Dm    F
With shiny, shiny cufflinks
F          G            C
A shirtsleeve to enhance

C               Dm      F
The pin-striped men of morning
F          G      C
Are coming for to dance
C         Dm           F
With pure Egyptian Cotton

The kids don't stand a chance

C           Dm     F
You criticize the practice
F       G        C
By murdering their plants
C           Dm    F
Ignoring all the history
F       G        C
Denying them romance

C           Dm    F
The pin-striped men of morning
F       G        C
Are coming for to dance
C           Dm    F
Forty-million dollars
F       G        C
The kids don't stand a chance

(Solo)

C           Dm    F
I didn't like the business,
F       G        C
But that was at first glance
C           Dm    F
Your pillow feels so soft now
F       G        C
But still you must advance

C           Dm    F
The pin-striped men of morning
F       G        C
The partners in the dance
C           Dm    F
The paper's shot to pieces
F       G        C
The kids don't stand a chance
