A                 F#m
Wash with new soap, behind the collar
G                     G#m
Keeps a clean mental state
A                   F#m
Don't usually bother, in cold weather
       G                           G#m
But, still, I'm getting into work late

Chorus:
D            A         B     C
And I don't need the practice
E     C#m          B     Em/G    A
I've been making plans (for the future)
E         C#m          B   Em/G     A
Become an unconscious man (all for the good)
E         C#m     B
I feel so unnecessary
 Em/G       A        B         D
(We don't think so, you seem star shaped)

I have a couple at the weekend
Keeps up camaraderie
And my mind boggles in the muddle
At the possibilities
And I don't need the practice

Chorus - x2

I wash with new soap behind the collar
Helps keep down the laundry
And now I bother in cold weather
Because it cleans me mentally
And I really don't need the practice

Chorus - x2
