Supermodel, oh yeah....
play that thru chorus
At the end there is a part where the chorus gets loud.
All you do is distort the guitar and play power chords instead of
single notes.
For the bridge, play the intro a few times.
LYRICS:
Love child of Gengis Khan
And a beautiful busty Amazon
On the Death Star with her godfather
Darth Vader, and nine months later
CHORUS:
But that's impossible
Yeah she's supercolossal
She'll make a fascinating fossil
Supermodel, oh yeah
Supermodel, oh yeah
Not just a regular girl (check it out!)
-bridge-
She's made of metal and a million miles high
Got her hair cut scraping the sky
She made it with the Terminator
Schwarzenegger, and nine months later
-chorus-
Supermodel, oh yeah
Supermodel, oh yeah
Supermodel, oh yeah
Supermodel, oh yeah
(add dist. here)
Supermodel, oh yeah (x6)
Not just a regular girl, a supermodel.
LIVE @ THE CROCODILE HE SUBSTITUTES THINGS LIKE "SUPERMARKET", "HOOKED
ON PHONICS", AND "SUPERSONICS" FOR "SUPERMODEL".
