Look at the kid from school 
               B                      F# 
He?s teaching mamas and papas how to be a little cool 
              B                    F# 
He?s changing fashion, the way he dress 
    B                             F# 
The tracksuits are old, and the hoody?s way too moody 
       Eb          Bb 
For a kid with the will to funk 
    B        F#              C# 
He dances in secret; he?s a part-time punk 
 
B     		       F# 
She?s getting off the plane 
               B                      F# 
She wants to write a thesis on the population underprivileged 
     B                   F# 
The kids fighting up the lane 
      B 
Shop lifting, just drifting 
          F# 
Like The Switchblade And The Cross 
                 Eb                 Bb 
But if there?s trouble she?s got the moves 
       B           F#         C# 
She?s taking an elementary class in Kung fu 
 
   B                    F# 
I left my washing in the launderette 
         B                             F# 
You can put some money on it, you can place a little bet 
           B 
That when I see my washing 
     Eb           Bb           B              F# 
The black will be grey and the white will be grey 
          C# 
But the blues are still blue 
 
B                      F# 
I?m crying out for my mum 
         B                         F# 
If the malady don?t go away we?re in a little trouble 
       B                F# 
With the boss of the company 
      B                       F# 
I?m a singer, a swinger I?m a layabout but laying on 
   Eb            Bb 
The dock in the lazy sun 
 
     B             F#       C# 
Will never quite relegate me to a bum 
 
   B                    F# 
I left my lady in the launderette 
         B                             F# 
You can put some money on it, you can place a little bet 
           B 
That when I see my lady 
     Eb           Bb            B              F# 
The black will be white and the white will be black

Baby, I love your face 
            B 
I?ve been creeping round this town because? 
        F# 
Well, creeping?s just my way 
           B                   F# 
But with a little wink I?ll be there 
          B                             F# 
I?ll be excited for a week, but then excitement starts to fade 
            Eb                 Bb 
I know your young, but you?re out of touch 
       B              F#         C# 
You?re French, your vocabulary?s not quite formed 
 
   B                       F# 
I left my homework in the launderette 
        B                              F# 
I got a letter from my mamma which my stoopid dog has ate 
              B 
I hid behind the fence 
               Eb     Bb             B        F# 
Here comes the deputy head with the bark of a bulldog 
         C# 
He?s not making much sense 
 
   B                 F# 
I left my lady in the launderette 
         B                             F# 
You can put some money on it, you can place a little bet 
           B 
That when I see my lady 
     Eb           Bb            B              F# 
The black will be white and the white will be black 
          C# 
But the blues are still blue
