Ma[A]roon is the [D]colour of my [B]true love's [E]hair,
She's got a [A]cross stitch [D]exhibition [B]over [E]there
A [A]spate of pan [D]fires isn't going to [B]happen round [E]here
It [A]fills me with[D] joy to see [B]moshers out [E]jogging
It [A]fills me with[D] joy to see [B]moshers out [E]jogging
Ain't [A]no local [D]groups called [B]fk Your [E]Conglomerate

VERSE 3
Re[A]hearsals a[D]foot for the [B]Christmas [E]play
It's called [A]Roll A Square, [D]Arthur, and [B]mind what you [E]say
It's a [A]cricketing [D]farce with a [B]thickening [E]plot
Act [A]one, scene [D]one: Brenda [B]Blethyn gets [E]shot
Grad[A]uated to [D]solids dis[B]turbingly [E]early
Grad[A]uated to [D]solids dis[B]turbingly [E]early
The [A]Mummers, the [D]poppers, the [B]best of the [E]Coppers
Any[A]one can join [D]in, so I dis[B]carded my [E]jeans
And played[A]... [D] Pantheus, [B]King of [E]Thebes
And some [A]Bloomsbury pe[D]ripherals said I [B]had the best [E]line
Check your [A]sheds, check your [D]sheds, I think I've [B]lost my [E]mind
