E (1)
Just a little touch of make-up; just a little touch of bull;
E (1)
just a little 3-chord trick embedded in your platform soul;
E (1)
you can wear a gold Piaget on your Semaphore wrist;
E (1)
you can dance the old adage with a new dapper twist.

C D A Asus2
And you can ring a crown of roses round your cranium,
F C E
live and die upon your cross of platinum.

           D         Dsus4           D Dsus4
Join the crazed institution of the stars.
     A          Asus4          A
Be the man that you think you really are.
           D         Dsus4           D Dsus4
Join the crazed institution of the stars.
     A          Asus4         A
Be the man that you know you really are.

E (1)
Crawl inside your major triad, curl up and laugh
E (1)
as your agent scores another front page photograph.
A (2)
Is it them or is it you throwing dice inside the loo
A (2)
awaiting someone else to pull the chain.
E (1)
Well grab the old bog-handle, hold your breath and light a candle.
E (1)
Clear your throat and pray for rain
D (3)
to irrigate the corridors that echo in your brain
A (2)
filled with empty nothingness, empty hunger pains.

G E B
And you can ring a crown of roses round your cranium,
F C E
live and die upon your cross of platinum.
