F                 G           F G
You look like a praying mantis
F                       G        F G
You could say that the bug is man
D#              G           F G
Big joke or a small disaster
D#                       G            F   G
Last chance before they give it the plaster

Paint my picture and I’ll paint you
You’re not like the others, you ain’t
Running down the hill, I thought I passed her
Last chance before they give it the plaster

I can’t dance but I don’t wanna bore you
Last line from the cephalaphore
I’ll be the son of a son of a son of a bastard
Last chance before they give it the plaster

Big joke or a small disaster
Last chance before they give it the plaster
