Chorus:
      C              D      G          C             D        G
      Fruitcakes in the kitchen, fruitcakes on the street
      
                  C       D               G                      C         D
     G
      Struttin' naked through the crosswalk in the middle of the week

                      C          D       G                      C        D
       G  
      Half-baked cookies in the oven, half baked people on the bus
 
                    C     D      G                  C       D       G
      There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us

 Verse1:

      C             D         G         C             D        G
                     
      Paradise, lost and found.  Paradise, take a look around
 
               C       D       G             C              D      G
      I was out in California where I hear they have it all 

                    C      D            G                             C
     D      G      
      They got riots, fires, and mudslides.  They got sushi in the mall
 
      C        D           G                C           D         G      
      Water bars and brontosaurs, Chinese modern lust

       C              D           G                           C         D
      G
       Shake and bake life with the quake, the secret's in the crust

     
To Chorus:

 Spoken: Speakin' of Fruitcakes, how 'bout the government?

               C        D         G                     C            D
               G
       "We lost or martian rocketship", the high-paid sposkesman said

                   C          D    G                     C         D
                G       
         Looks like that silly rocket ship has lost its cone-shaped head
         
                C           D       G                  C       D        G
         We spend 90 jillion dollars, tryin' a get a look at Mars
  
                  C    D      G                   C    D             G
       
         I hear Universal laughter ringin' out among the stars

         C              D       G         C               D       G  
         Fruitcakes in the Galaxy, Fruitcakes on the Earth

                    C       D           G                   C            D
            G        
        Struttin' naked towards Eternity, we've been that way since birth

                         C         D       G                      C        D
       G
        Half-baked cookies in the oven, half-baked people on the bus

                      C     D      G                    C      D       G    
        There's a little bit of Fruitcake left in everyone of us
