[G]As [D]usual time would [E]tell

She loved to show [G]and [D]tell
Lord, she [A]loved [G]to tell

You scratch like you need calamine
Flamingo boots, sole's a creakin'
Still in love and Puerto Rican [D]too[A]

[Verse 10]
[D]in' on the wheels of hell
Smokin' up our axle grease
[E]Oh [D]the backstage is roc[Dm]kin'
And we're [D]coppin' from
the [Bm]local [A]po lice
That's right, the local [D]police
Or [A]the justice of [Dm]peace[D]
[G]But with [A]all our [G]style

[Verse 15]
[Cm]Candy store and rock and roll
Corporation jellyroll
Play the singles, it ain't me
It's programmed insanity

Could ever make a mountain fly
If Japanese can boil teas
Then where the fuck's my
