	        E      E/Eb            Bm/D          C#7                  F#m     
It's a god-awful small affair to the girl with the mousy hair   
         F#m/E             B/Eb                               E     
But her mother is yelling 'No' and her father as told her to go   
          E/Eb                  Bm/D     
But her friend is nowhere to be seen   
        C#7                       F#m   
As she walks through her sunken dream   
        F#m/E                  B/Eb     
To the seat with the clearest view    
                                G   
And she's hooked to the silver screen   
          G               Em   
But the film is a saddening bore   
            F                   C   
For she's lived it ten times or more   
           E7                   Am          C    
She could spit in the eyes of fools as they ask her to focus on   
   
    
A D E Sailors, fighting in the dance hall F#m Dm E Em Bm Oh man! look at those cavemen go, it's a freakest show Dm A D E Take a look at the Lawman, beating up the wrong guy F#m Dm E Em Bm Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know he's in the best selling show Dm F#m A F#m7 B7 D Esus4 B Is there life on Mars?
E E/Eb Bm/D It's on Amerika's tortured brow C#7 F#m Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow F#m/E B/Eb Now the workers have struck for fame E Cause Lennon's on sale again E/Eb Bm/D See the mice in their million hordes C#7 F#m From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads F#m/E B/Eb Rule Brittania is out of bounds G To my mother, my dog and clowns G Em But the film is a saddening bore F C Cause I wrote it ten times before E7 Am It's about to be writ again C As I ask you to focus on ....
