Chorus: C Em Am G All stand back, let the people see C Em Am G C G Take a snap of the famous groupies for me A Dm Be hold the Famous Groupies Dm They are alike as two peas Dm E A And where the other goes, the other goes Am But though the famous groupies Bm Em Are only paid in Rupees Am D Nobody knows what the famous groupies know Am G C G And nobody goes where the famous groupies go A Dm There was a bongo player Dm Who kept an extra layer Dm E A Of Dunlopillo mattress in his van (‘In his van?’) Am But when the famous groupies Bm Em Arrived with their twin snoopies Am D Nobody saw which way the poor boy ran Am D Nobody does it like a famous groupie can Chorus A Dm There was a lead guitarist Dm Who lived in Epping Forest Dm E A And all he ever wanted was to blow (’Lord knows why’) Am But when the girls were with him Bm Em He never lost his rhythm Am D And nobody knows what the famous groupies know Am G And nobody goes where the famous groupies go There was the classic story of a roadie nicknamed Rory Who used to practice voodoo on the side But when the famous twosome suggested something gruesome All that they found was a crater two miles wide Which left the music business absolutely horrified Chorus: All stand back, let the people see Take a snap of the famous groupies Ladies and gentlemen, those magnificent examples of female pulchritude and luminosity, direct from their global perambulations to the very boards of this supremely magnificent proscenium arch Ladies and gentlemen I give you, famous groupies!
