Mama Pajama rolled out of bed
                          D
and she ran to the police station
         E
When the papa found out he began to shout
                                   A     D A
and that's what started the investigation


                      E                      A
But it's against the law, it was against the law
              E                    A
What the mama saw, was against the law

A
Well the mama looks down and she spit on the ground
                              D
Every time my name gets mentioned
         E
And the papa says "Oy, when I get that boy
                                    A        D A
I'm gonna stick him in the house of detention!"

In a couple of days they come and take me away
                            D
But the press let the story leak
              E
And when the radical priest come and get me released
                         A        D A
We's all on the cover of Newsweek.

P.S. Since there is two guitars in the recording on the CD, just to clarify, this is the 
guitar playing. The other one is, I think, on the fifth fret (I don't remember) and is 
with a capo.
