Artist: Brian Eno Song: Back In Judy's Jungle Album: Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy) Year: 1974 Tabbed by: Wiktor Kolowiecki E-mail: [email protected] ----------------------------------------
Verse 1:
AF# These are your orders - seems like it's do it or die AF# So please read them closely, When you've read them be sure that you eat them up - E They're specially flavoured with Burgundy, Tizer and Rye AF# Twelve sheets of foolscap: don't ask me why.
Verse 2:
AF# We hit the jungle, Just as it starts to monsoon: AF# Our maps showed no rainfall. All the boys were depressed by this circumstance E "Trust in the weather" said less agricultural men AF# Who gives birth to more farmhands, don't ask me why.
Chorus:
AF# Fifteen was chosen because he was dumb, seven because he was blind: AF# I got the job because I was so mean, while somehow appearing so kind. E Drifting about through the cauliflower trees with a cauliflower ear for the birds, AF# The squadron assembled what senses they had and this is the sound that they heard...
Instrumental:
AEDA
Verse 3:
AF# Back at headquarters, khaki decisions are made AF# File under "Futile": that should give you its main point of reference E It's all so confusing, what with pythons and then deadly flies AF# But to them, it's a picnic, don't ask me why.
Chorus:
AF# Thirteen was chosen because of his luck, eleven because of his feet: AF# One got signed up for exceptional pluck, another because he was mute. E Roaming about through the gelatine swamps with a gelatine eye on the stripes, AF# The squadron assembled what senses they had and this is the sound that they heard...
Outro: AE Back in Blighty, there was you There were milkmen every morning DA But these endless shiny trees, never used to be that way.
