Verse 1
D#5 A#
She lifted the monument in her monumental arms
C# G#
She was the Mother Superior with her carry-on luggage charms
D#5 A#
She was this androgynous powder-nosed girl next door
C# G#
She had eaten her dog and she was back for more
Chorus
B D#5 B
Back for more,
D#5 B
back for more
D#5
Oh, she was back for more,
G# A# D#5
some more, yes please, some more
Verse 2
D#5 A#
Her gym teacher thought himself a sweat-socked demi-god
C# G#
And her geraniums thought themselves an alien pod
D#5 A#
And her front porch gave way beneath the classified weight
C# G#
And when an ambulance came they said it's much too late
Chorus
B D#5 B
Oh it's much too late
D#5 B
oh it's much too, much too late
D#5
Oh it's much too late,
G# A# D#5
how late? Very late, too late.
Bridge
C# G#
Now the people of New Guinea and the people of L.A
D#5
Have been penpals for years cause they both hate ballet
C# G#
Only the pandas and bears have made a clean getaway
D#5
But the news bulletin claims it is gonna be okay
C# G#
Now Miss Lucy had a sweatshop where the immigrants work
D#5
Problem was they all turned to pumpkins at the 12 o'clock stroke
C# G#
Promptly confiscated by police precinct number X
D#5
That was when alien geraniums entered into a fight
Chorus
B D#5
No violence, of course,
B D#5
no violence, no violence, of course
B D#5
Hey no violence, of course,
G# A# D#5
of course, why yes, of course
G# A# D#5
I mean, I mean, of course, why yes, of…of course
Verse
D#5 A#
Here the story gets hazy and the hair gets too long
C# G# D#5
And the T.V. gets quiet as I hear a real bad song
A#
The mothers get whiskey and the girlfriends get tongue
C# G#
And there's a back of a truck selling smoke free lungs
D#5 A#
And there's a back of a truck selling alien pods
C# G#
And there's a back of a truck selling game show hosts
D#5 A#
And there's a back of a truck selling the souls of the dead
C# G#
And there's a back of a truck selling crumb-free bread
This is New York!
D#5 A#
Now there's a back of a truck selling the back of a car
C# G#
And there's a back of a car selling roadway maps
D#5 A#
And there are roadway maps selling a back of a head
C#
Hey how much for that back of a head, man?
G#
Hey wait a minute, hey wait a minute
D#5 A#
Wait a minute that's…wait a minute that's my back of a head
C#
Hey you can't sell that, man, that's my back of a head
G#
Hey, hey sell it back to me, man, sell it back to me
D#5 A# C# G#
Hey it's, it's my m-m-m-m-m-m-mine
