Verse 2:
Gm G Eb Bb
My Amazon six-triggered bride
(Bb) Cm GmNow searching for a place to hide
Still sees truth quite easily
(Bb) Cm GmShrouds all else in mystery
Cm Eb7 GmWhile madmen in top hats and tails
Impale themselves on six inch nails
Bb Gm Cm GmAnd some Arabian also-ran
Bb Gm Cm GmImpersonates a watering can
[repeat intro w/full band after each verse]
Verse 2:
Some Santa Claus-like face of note
Entreats my ears to set afloat
My feeble, sick, and weary brain
And I am overcome with shame
And hide inside my overcoat
And hurriedly begin to quote
And some Arabian sheik most grand
Impersonates a hot dog stand
Instrumental break:
(guitar solo over verse chords)
Verse 3:
Red Cross ambulance outside
Could only mean that I must hide
'Til dusk and finally the night
When I will make a hasty flight
Across the sea and far away
To where the weary exiles stay
And some Arabian oil well
Impersonates a padded cell
Coda:
Bb Gm Cm Gm
And some Arabian oil well
Impersonates a padded cell
[repeat intro; end cold on last Gm of 2nd repeat]
