5   5   5   6   5   6  -5   5  -4   5
I'd like to drop my trousers to the world
-4 4 -4 -3” 5  -5 5    6   6 -5    5
 I am a man of me-ans, of slender means
-6    6  5     -6 6 5
Each household appliance
-6  6   5 -6   6  5   5  6  5 6 5
Is like a new science in my to-w-n 
 
 6  6   6  -6   6    -6  6  5   6  -6  5  7 -6 5
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
 6  6    5   5   6    5   5  5    5
I'd get such a shock I'd prob’ly jump
-5  -5  5 5
In the ocean
 5   6   5   5   -4   -4
And when a train goes by
-4    -5  6 -5    5
It's such a sad sound 
5   6   -5  5  -4  5  -5 5 -4  5  -5 5  -4  4
No, oh (la lan da ding a ba ba ba ba la ba lan)
-5    -5  5 -5   5  4
It's such a sad thi-ng 
 

 5   5   5   6   5   6  -5   5  -4   5
I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen 
6 6    6 -5 5    6    6    6    -5   5     5
Every sensible child will know what this means
-6   6    5  -6   6 5
The poor and the needy
-6   6  5    5   6 5   5  6    5 6 5
Are selfish and greedy on her te-r-ms
 
 
6  6   6  -6   6    -6  6  5   6  -6  5   7 -6 5
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion 
 6  6    5   5   6    5    5  5    5
I'd get such a shock I'd prob’ly jump
-5  -5  5 5
In the ocean
 5   6   5   5   -4   -4
And when a train goes by
-4    -5  6 -5    5
It's such a sad sound 
5   6   -5  5  -4  5  -5 5 -4  5  -5 5  -4  4
No, oh (la lan da ding a ba ba ba ba la ba lan)
-5    -5  5 -5   5  4
It's such a sad thi-ng 
 
 
-6   -6  -6  -6 6  -6 6  -6
And when I'm lying in my bed
6   6   6 6    6
I think about life
 6  6   6    6 6  6 -6
And I think about dea-th
-5  -5 6 -5    5  -6 6 5 5 -6   5  6   5  5
And ne-it-her one particularly appeals to me 
 
 6  6   6  -6   6    -6  6  5   6  -6  5   7 -6 5
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion 
-6  -6   -6  6  -6   -6   -6  6  -6
I'd get such a shock I'd prob’ly lie
-6  6  -6 -6  -6  6    -6   -6 7 7 -6
In the middle of the street a-nd di-e
 6  -6  -6 6   6  -7 7 -7 -6
I'd lie do-wn and dieeeeeee 
-6 -7  -7 7  7 -6
Ohhhh, ohhh, ohhhh
