Half Man Half Biscuit – The Bastard Son Of Dean Friedman (Guitar)

       D                                A
Well I heard a lovely rumour that Bette Midler had a tumour

   D                           A
So gleefully I went to tell my friends

         D                         F#
But they said it was a lie and she wasn't going to die

    G                               A
And by the way have we got news for you!

         D                          A
And they told me that the man I had always known as dad

D                            A
Hadn't met my mum when I was born

         D                      F#
And they reckon that I am but I hope to god I'm not

    D                   A    D

       D                                 A
And my school work fell behind with this bombshell on my mind

        D                        A
But the art teacher said he understood

             D                        F#
But he could only sympathise with the sadness in my eyes

G                              A
Even though he showed me his Magritte.

           D                         A
And in the corridors of fear I would shed a lonely tear

   D                             A
As ridicule flew at me from both sides

         D                           F#
And they mocked me in my Mocks and embroidered in my socks

    D                   A    D

    D                  F#
