(Em7)Kids

and (Am)planes

and (G)run way strikes,

flash y pimps and fam ’ly fights,

spot ted dogs

and blood shot eyes,

our space cap tain (F)laughs and tries

to un der stand

the scheme of things.

And just in time the scene has changed.

The bus is here;

bring the beer.

Sher man’s (A)read ing

Shake

Mov ie mak ers,

boob y shak ers,

and sex y air plane tick et tak ers,

Le o Fen der’s pride and joy,

e lec tric (F)toy.

Teach ers and learn ers

and in cense burn ers,

re li gious lead ers

and chron ic (Fmaj7)bleed ers,

thieves and (Em7)pi (F)rates

on a ride;

it’s a hip pie (F)com mune, bo na (C)fide.

My life and (Am)time,

But O kies and Lim eys,

Stones and fu ture Dom i noes,

I know which way the wind blows,

sto len co la no one knows,

but it’s still a (Bb9)shad y crew.

’Cause I love (F#)her

and she

loves you.

Just my (F#)self and for ty friends

in the name of Cock er (A7)Pow er

out here on

the (C)road (Gm)a (A)gain

(Dm7)with mad dogs and (G7)Eng lish (C)men.
