[Verse 2] (1:20-)

  Every morning I'm out at dawn with the dwarfs and the tramp
  For a silent communion lit from above by the sodium lamps

  Everyone I meet out on the street acts as if I wasn't there
  But they're all going to know who I am 'cos I can go out on the air


(Chorus) (1:51-)

 Turning out Tarzan for my Jungle Jane

 anyone at all,    from  Captain Zero and 
 his brand of superhero, standing by a call

D              A             
     Oh it's not easy, no no no 
D              A          E4/B        
 No, no it's not easy making real friends

[Verse 3] (2:46-)

  Don't you give me your steak-reared milkboys, milkboys
  Half alive on empty white noise, white noise

  I got power, I'm proud to be loud; my signal goes out clear,
  I want everybody to know that Mozo is here
