By Adam Blackburne
(Some lyrics are missing/incorrect)
C#
I'll never dance with a Sycophant
Bbm G#
I'd rather entertain disdain
C# Bbm G#
from someone who I love, at least you know where you stand,
C#
you'll never understand
C#/Bbm/G# x2
C# Bbm
Keep your eyes on your own work son, do your homework son
G# C#
you'll never be undone
Bbm G#
we're like a father and a son we will never be undone
C#/Bbm/G# x2
I'll ask you;
Bbm
are my clothes alright?
Fm
Is my hair alright?
F# G#
You can say what you want cos its what we like
Bbm Fm
we are judged on everything single thing we do
F# G#
we could not care less cos we are us not you
C#
you say you're clued up i think you're glued up
Bbm G# C#
You're seen everywhere in town, but you're never with a friend
Bbm G# C#
you know everybodys name, you're the king of pretend
C#/Bbm/G#

C#
The proofs in the pudding, and the gigs,
Bbm G#
you've not even been to Woolworths to buy your mix
C#
You flirt with the weather a kneeling knave?
Bbm G#
Billy Shakespeare would be spinning in his grave
Bbm
are my clothes alright?
Fm
Is my hair alright?
F# G#
You can say what you want cos its what we like
Bbm Fm
we are judged on everything single thing we do
