	        C           Dm     F 
A devastating backstroke 
F       G        C 
All the way from France 
C           Dm    F 
With shiny, shiny cufflinks 
F          G            C 
A shirtsleeve to enhance 

C               Dm      F 
The pin-striped men of morning 
F          G      C 
Are coming for to dance 
C         Dm           F 
With pure Egyptian Cotton 
F         G           C 
The kids don't stand a chance 

C           Dm     F 
You criticize the practice 
F       G        C 
By murdering their plants 
C           Dm    F 
Ignoring all the history 
F       G        C 
Denying them romance 

C           Dm    F 
The pin-striped men of morning 
F       G        C 
Are coming for to dance 
C           Dm    F 
Forty-million dollars 
F       G        C 
The kids don't stand a chance 

(Solo) 

C           Dm    F 
I didn't like the business, 
F       G        C 
But that was at first glance 
C           Dm    F 
Your pillow feels so soft now 
F       G        C 
But still you must advance 

C           Dm    F 
The pin-striped men of morning 
F       G        C 
The partners in the dance 
C           Dm    F 
The paper's shot to pieces 
F       G        C 
The kids don't stand a chance
