Four years of hard work!

[Verse 1]

E A E
Precious McKenzie, boy I remember you well
A E
Gob full of tapioca, I would sit and I’d watch you excel
A E
Those legendary rivulets would trickle on down to your chin
A E
But I always wondered what you did when you packed it all in.

C E
What are you doing today?
C F
What have you done with the money?
C E
How much did Singleton pay?
C F E
Do you think you were misunderstood? I do.

[Verse 2]

A E
Down at Stoke Mandeville I bumped into Mr IQ
A E
I said “Hey albino, this is not 1972
A E
Stub out your King Edward and get that small boy off your knee
A E
And melt down your fingerware and get yourself off my TV”.

C E
Jim could you fix it for me
C F
To come down and suck out your kidneys?
C E
I’ve got this young brother you see
C F C
Who wants to stay alive to watch Bilko.

[Bridge]

C F
When I’m pining for a cigarette
C F
I think of all the free ones that I’d get
C F G G7
If I killed myself and came back as a beagle.
