[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
C F It's the time of year now that spring is in the air G C When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair F Make another song for moronic holidays G C That nauseate-ate-ate in a million different ways F From the shores of Spain to the coast of southern France D G No matter where you hide you just can't escape this dance
[Chorus]
G C G Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose C Buy a jumbo jet and then bury all your clothes F Paint your left knee green then extract your wisdom teeth C G C Form a string quartet and pretend your name is Keith

[Verse 2]
A D A Skin yourself alive, learn to speak Arapaho D Climb inside a dog and behead an eskimo G Eat a Renault 4, wear salami in your ears D A D A Casserole your gran, disembowel yourself with spears
[Bridge]
D G The disco is migrating, the sound is loud and grating E A It's truly nauseating, let's do the dance again
Up 1 tone
[Chorus]
B E B Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose E Yes you'll hear this song in the holiday discos A And there's no escape in the clubs or in the bars E B E You would hear this song if you holidayed in Mars
