In sheets for which I paid

Am         G

To make you feel small and alone

   F                       G              A
To make you feel that your mind isn't your own

  Dm               C
I spent the day in bed

Am                   G
  You can please yourself

       Dm               C
But, I spent the day in bed

Am              G

Life ends in death

Am                     G
   So, there's nothing wrong with

      Dm          C
Being good to yourself

Am                G
   Be good to yourself for once!

And no bus, no boss, no rain, no train

       Dm      C        Am       G
And no bus, no boss, no rain, no train

   Dm    C      Am         G
No emasculation,    no castration

   Dm       C        Am   G
No highway, freeway, motorway

       Dm      C        Am       G
And no bus, no boss, no rain, no train
