(Intro E A E A)
          E                   A
There was one in the gang who had Scalextric

      E                               A
And because of that he thought he was better than you

      E                      A
Every day after school you’d go round there to play it

E                     A
Hoping to compete for some kind of championship

       E                                 A                             
But it always took about fifteen billion hours to set the track up

    E                     A                           C G C G C G C G
And even when you did the thing never seemed to work

         E                  A          
It was a dodgy transformer again and again

  E                  A      
A dodgy transformer again and again

         E                  A          
It was a dodgy transformer again and again

  E                      A                     E A E A
A dodgy transformer that cost three pound ten

        E                             A         
So he’d send his doting mother up the stairs with the stepladders

   E                A
To get the Subbuteo out of the loft

   E                         A       
He had all the accessories required for that big match atmosphere

    E                            A                      
The crowd and the dugout and the floodlights too

      E                            A      
You’d always get palmed off with a headless centre forward

      E                             A              C G C G C G C G
And a goalkeeper with no arms and a face like his

         E                        A
And he’d managed to get hold of a Dukla Prague away kit

        E                                  A        
Cos his uncle owned a sports shop and he’d kept it to one side

          E                          A     
And after only five minutes you’d be down to ten men

         E                                       A
Cos he’d sent off your right back for taking the base from under his left winger

    E                          A
And come to half time you were losing four-nil

E                     A
Each and every goal a hotly disputed penalty

         E                                A          
So you’d smash up the floodlights and the match was abandoned

        E                           A
And the dog would bark and you’d be banned from his house

         E                    A
And your travelling army of synthetic supporters

         E                       A                 C G C G C G C G
Would be taken away from you and thrown in the bin

         E            A
Now he’s working in a job with a future

   E                A
He hands me my Giro every two weeks

    E                           A
And me I’m on the lookout for a proper transformer …errr
