Bm                    F#
The suburbs they are dreaming
          Bm             F#
They're a twinkle in her eye
G#m                  G
She's been feeling frisky
          F#
Since her husband said goodbye

    Bm               F#             Bm      F#
She wears a low cut T-shirt runs a little B&B
      G#m          G                F#
She's most accommodating when she's in her lingerie

       A
Wife swapping is the future
You know that it would suit you

Chorus:
Bm
Yes, they're stereotypes
There must be more to life
G#m                     E    B
All your life you are dreaming
             E      B
And then you stop dreaming
     C#
From time to time you know
               D         E        Bm
You should be going on another bender

The suburbs, they are sleeping,
but he's dressing up tonight
She likes a man in uniform,
he likes to wear it tight

They're on the lovers' sofa,
they're on the patio
And when the fun is over,
watch themselves on video

The neighbours may be staring
But they are just past caring

Chorus:
Yes, they're stereotypes, t
here must be more to life
All your life you're dreaming
and then you stop dreaming
From time to time, you know
You're going on another bender
Yes, there must be more to life than stereotypes

Wife-swapping is your future
You know that it would suit ya

Chorus:
Yes, they're stereotypes,
there must be more to life
All your life you're dreaming
and then you stop dreaming
From time to time, you know
You should be going on another bender
Yes, there must be more to life
than stereotypes
All your life you're dreaming
and then you stop dreaming
From time to time, you know
You should go on another bender
Before you come to an end-ah
