[Intro 1]
[G][Cm][G]
[Gm][Cm]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Making babies,
like babies make faces
Time [F]alone, [G]helpin' on to the races
Sometime I [C]dream about [G]getting fixed
Out my [F]mind, [G]soon as we dig I kiss
[Gm]If it don't look nasty,
[G]I won't make babies
Too many miles to be about to go crazy
How [Bb]come we [F]never [Dm]watch
[G]tele[Gm]vision?[G]
How [F]come we never watch [Gm]television?
[G]Scattered and spl[C]attered on
[G]the love [Em]all t[C]he time
[G]Scratchin' [C]and scramblin' and
we'd never [G]have [C]a dime
[G]Livin' for lov[C]in' [G]all the [C]time
Did[G]n't have it on [C]us,
it should be a nat[G]ural [Am]crime[D]
[G][Gdim][G]

[Verse 3]
[Cm]
T -T -T [G]-Television
Use our [Gm]whole card
[G]for a ten minute thing
Just like love
[Cm]but [G]on the wing
Treat the small fry like stepchildren
Move on away, baby, cause we too willing
Out the bedroom, it's all null and [C]void
[G]Be cheaper to sleep with
