Tom: A A E Why are we racing to be so old? A E I'm up late pacing the floor I won't be told A E D You have your reservations I'm bought and sold D I'll face the music I'll face the facts E Even when we walk in polka dots and chequer slacks A E Bowing and squawking Running after titbits A E7 Bobbing and squinting Just like a nitwit Chorus: D Two little Hitlers will fight it out until E A One little Hitler does the other one's will D E D E I will return I will not burn E Down in the basement A E I need my head examined I need my eyes excited A E7 I'd like to join the party But I was not invited A E7 You make a member of me I'll be delighted D I wouldn't cry for lost souls, you might drown E Dirty words for dirty minds Written in a toilet town A E7 Dial me a Valentine She's a smooth operator A E7 It's all so calculated She's got a calculator A E7 She's my soft touch typewriter And I'm the great dictator **Chorus A A simple game of self-respect E A You flick a switch and the world goes off E A Nobody jumps as you expect E F#m E I would have thought you would have had enough by now A E7 You call selective dating For some effective mating A E7 I thought I'd let you down, dear But you were just deflating A E7 I knew right from the start We'd end up hating D Pictures of the merchandise Plastered on the wall E We can look so long as we don't have to talk at all A E7 You say you'll never know him He's an unnatural man A A He doesn't want your pleasure He wants as no one can A E7 He wants to know the names of All those he's better than **Chorus D E I will return D E I will not burn . . . . .
