        Em                         B7             Em
Bust my back on the Levy, broke my strings on the BBC

         Am                               D              B7  
Found my chops on Eel Pie Island, paid my dues at the Marquee

        Em                         Am
Slagged off by the N.M.E., lost my stash and my virginity

        C7         B7  Em
In this cockamamie  business

        Em                           B7                Em
Got my face on Ed Sullivan, broke my heart on the Soul Train

     Am                         D                   B7     
Introduced to Bad Company, lost cells down at Brain Drain

      Em                           Am         
And before I could mend, lost the missus, missed the girlfriend

        C7         B7  Em
In this cockamamie business

       Em                                B7               Em
Now we like to air condition, though the air has no ozone ring 

              Am                             D                      B7  
Still they're chopping down the forest for McDonalds and the Burger King

       Em                                  Am
Eating cows with such persistence, doesn't offer much resistance

        C7         B7  Em
To this cockamamie business

       Em                  B7                               Em
There are too many things, stressing out the nervous system

Am                      D                         B7  
Girls you used to know, fellas that may have kissed'em

         Em                               Am
Some got rabies, some got fleas, some got incurable diseases

          C7         B7  Em
From this cockamamie business

     Em              B7                      Em
Everybody's after as many points as they can get

   Am                                D                           B7
As long as it's not them that has to pay no one really minds the debt

       Em                              Am
5-Star actors, tax inspectors, film producers and directors

           C7         B7  Em
With their cockamamie business

         Em               B7                      Em
Well you do what you can, can't do much more than that

     Am                           D                        B7 
Some days you're pretty sharp, on other days you feel half dead

       Em                         Am
Didn't want to be a star, wanted just to play guitar

        C7         B7  Em
