Intro E  Esus4/F#   x10 


verse 1 
E 
The insect-headed worker wife 
E 
Will hang her waspies on the line 
E 
The husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe 
E 
While studying their cushion-floor 
E 
His viscous poly-paste breath comes out 
E 
Their wall-paper world is shattered by his shout 
E 
A boy in blue is busy banging out a headache On the kitchen door

C#m               A 
And all the while Graham slept on 
B                                  E 
Dreaming of a world where he could do 
B            E    B E 
Just what he wanted to
