[Intro]
G5 , E5 (x4)

[Verse 1]
G5                  E5                 C5
   When you walked in, I said with a grin
                    D5                G5
That we were just talking about you
              E5                    C5
We all had to lie because you would cry
                      D5
If you knew we were laughing at you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
       G5         Eb+             E5              G5
In the momentary lull before the band begins to play
            C5           D5        G5  D5
There's an overwhelming stench of alibi

[Chorus]
G5              E5
  Come on now, now
              C5
Come on now, now
           A5           D5        G5
Enjoy the humour of the situation
              E5
Come on now, now
              C5
Come on now, now
           A5           D5
Enjoy the humour of the situation

[Instrumental]
G5 , E5 (x2)

[Verse 2]
I said on the phone "Don't wait 'till I'm home"
But I'm sure I could hear you crying
I said where I was, but you doubt it because
It's the caller I.D. you're buying

[Pre-Chorus 2]
In the hour that it took for me to drive up to the door
You'd arranged all my belongings on the lawn

[Chorus] (x2)
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation 

[Bridge]
C5            G5       Bb5          F5
   Have you heard the one about the boy
            F5      C5           G5     C5
Who moved into the henhouse to sleep?
         G5      Bb5           F5
He woke up with egg on his face
             F5            C5                      D5
When he found out all the hens had crossed the street

[Chorus] (x2)
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation 

[Verse 3]
As I walked out, I thought about all I had left behind me
I felt a chill because I was still
Wearing the emperor's new clothes

[Pre-Chorus 3]
My mind was racing with each chance that I had missed
While your next door neighbour soaked be with the house

[Pre-Chorus 4]
I've never felt so small, I've never been so dissed
As I shiver, dripping, while the chorus goes:

[Chorus] (x3)
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation

[Coda]
G5 , E5 , C5 , A5 , D5 , A5 , D5 , G5

[End on G5 ]
