D                C
Oh, Pamela, what did you do?

You touched the ground and I fell in love with you

                  D          G
Can you lend your ears about my mate Pamela?

C                    G
  So naughty but she loves her fella

D                G
  One wink and a glint in the other one

C                   G
  At night she only wears Yves Saint Laurent

D                         G
  Watches black and white movies to get thin

C                 G
  Curls her hair just like Marilyn

D             G
  Oh, what an enigmatic woman

  My gosh do some mothers have 'em

Can you lend your ears for a man in trouble?

  She tripped me up and now I see double

D                      G
  I asked her what her life was missing

C                         G
  And if she'd like to go trout mask kissing

D               G
  Said, "Go get high with the other ones"

C                         G
  I looked around, lights on but no one home

D             G
  Oh, what an enigmatic woman

  My gosh do some mothers have 'em

Take it away [Instrumental] D C G D D C G D [Bridge]
D               G
  Earl grey and lemons in the morning

C             G
  By noon her nurse comes calling

D                  G
  Limousine with a stretcher in the back

C                       G
  They strap her down when she has a panic attack

D                G
  I followed her down to the hospital

C               G
  No visitors allowed on a bicycle

D                  G
  So I threw rocks up to the window

C                      G
  I broke the glass so she could feel the wind blow
[Chorus]
