Reincarnation

Cm Ab Well, I'm sorry God, I have to say, Fm G That having just one life per person is not enough. Not enough. Cm Ab I would like to live more times than this, Fm G If you don't agree then tough. T-U-ough. Ab Eb There are other lives going on, I haven't lived, Fm G And this gives me a sense of frustration. Frustration - frustration - frust, ra, a, a. Ab Eb I'm not too bothered about being Mary Queen of Scots or Joan of Ark, F Bb All I'm after is Twentieth Century Reincarnation. Eb Bb I want to keep coming back, Cm G And trying a different track; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to go round and round, 'cos I never feel I've got things right. Eb Bb It isn't a proper scheme, Cm G I just want to let off steam; Ab Eb Cm Bb We all have to have a dream, and I'll be following my dream tonight. Eb Bb I want to be Mrs Pew, Cm G And live in an avenue; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to have bing-bong chimes and a bathroom with a champagne suite. Eb Bb In my candlewick dressing grown, Cm G I want to put Harpic down; Ab Eb Cm Bb If my ironing smells quite fresh then my happiness will be complete. D I'll wear an apron when I chop my veggies; G Have tiny cactus on the window ledges; C Have a rollerblind with scalloped edges; F E Eb I will never use a Wok, so; D I'd prefer to stick to Mrs Beaton; G Have a hob that I can then re-heat on; C Use my toaster with the ears of wheat on; F Bb I will do a lot with Oxo. Eb Bb I want to be Martin Jones, Cm G A salesman for mobile phones; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to shake hands a lot, sit in winebars while I make my sales. Eb Bb I want to drink warm Rose, Cm G Keep saying "no way, Jose"; Ab Eb Cm Bb And live in a Docklands flat with a mortgage that's the size of Wales. D I'll keep my bottle when the market's crashing; G Be super cool when profits take a bashing; C I'll cross the crossing when the green man's flashing; F E Eb I'm a devil on a Zebra; D I'll meet a girl and feel a good vibration; G Buy her flowers as a nice flirtation; C Three carnations from a petrol station; F Bb Take her for an aquilibre. Eb Bb I want to be Pauline Park, Cm G And work as an invoice clerk; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to eat lean cuisine, even though I'm eight stone three; Eb Bb I'll sit and I'll fantasise, Cm G About cruel men with piercing eyes; Ab Eb Cm Bb Then I'll microwave two mince pies and have them with a cup of tea. D I'll watch a thriller if it's not too gory; G A mini-series if I like the story; C I think there ought to be more Nana Mouskori; F E Eb No, I'll never have the news on; D Doctor Scholl will be my favourite sandal; G Higher heels than that, I cannot handle; C Saw Barry Mannilow and held my candle; F Bb Wax was running down my blouson. Eb Bb I want to be Vera Paige, Cm G A dame of a certain age; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to have big red lips and a cleavage that would drown a mouse; Eb Bb I want to call all men swine, Cm G Wear visible panty-line; Ab Eb Cm Bb Have sing-songs on British wine, I always have it in the house. D I'll be known in all the pubs and chip shops; G Dangly jewellery and sequin zip tops; C Tracksuit bottoms and stiletto flip-flops; F E Eb I'll be really in the groove, eh? D Never take a bus if I can cab it; G Offer me a bit of life, I'll grab it; C My libido would defeat a rabbit; F Bb And I'll never change the duvet. Eb Bb I want to be Eileen Gum, Cm G Who calls herself just a mum; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to have three big lads and a husband who I've driven nuts; Eb Bb I'll struggle and sacrifice, Cm G To make sure they have things nice; Ab Eb Cm Bb I'll give them such good advice they'll absolutely hate my guts. D I'll make them bags that they can take their pumps in; G I'll knit pyjamas they can have their mumps in; C My mashed potato will have big grey lumps in; F E Eb I'll control each family member; D Make them gather round the Christmas table; G And eat until to move they are unable; C They'll wish that Joseph never found that stable; F Bb I'll put my sprouts on in November. Eb Bb I think it's a giant con, Cm G We can't all be everyone; Ab Eb Cm Bb I want to go round and round, just living every life in sight. Eb Bb It isn't a proper scheme, Cm G I just want to let off steam; Ab Eb Cm Bb We all have to have a dream, and I'll be following my dream... Bb Following my dream... Bb Following my dream, tonight...!
