We've heard this little scene, we've heard it many times.
People fighting over little things and wasting precious time.
They might be better off ... I thing ... the way it seems to me.
Making up their own shows, which might be better than T.V.

Their show gets real high ratings, they think they have a hit.
There might even be a spinoff, but they're not sure 'bout that.
If they ever watch T.V. again, it'd be too soon for them.

too much fun.

But I'm...not in love.

What does it take to fall in love?

Do people really fall in love?
(REST AS ABOVE)
...Happy!
Is there time for this? Is this responsibility?
Girl time, boy time, is that the difference between me and you?
I won't ask any questions,
Who needs to make a new start?
I choose to believe you,
I said before that I can't.
...'Cause I'm not in love.
What does it take to fall in love?
Why would I want to fall in love?
...Feeling!
Take it easy baby...Don't let your feelings get in the way.
Some day, I believe, we can live in a world without love.
I can answer your questions,
If you won't twist what I say.
Please respect my opinions,
They will be respected some day.
Because we don't need love.
I believe that we don't need love.
There'll come a day when we won't need love.

It seems like the basis of the verses exists only by the A7sus4 chord.
Around this chord the rhythm section is playing along with the bass
playing the |:F A |F A :| part. When playing the song on guitar
without a band you can make the verses less boring by playing the bass
part on the guitar...

Nothing can come between us
Nothin gets you down
Nothing strikes your fancy
Nothing turns you on
Somebody is waiting in the hallway
Somebody is falling down the stairs
Set someone free, break someone's heart
Stand up help us out
Ev'rything is divided
Nothing is complete
Ev'rything looks impressive
Do not be deceived
You don't have to wait for more instructions
No one makes a monkey out of me
We lie on our backs, feet in the air
Rest and relaxation, rocket to my brain

This is again one of these songs that's got one basic chord: Dm
On the chorusses Dm7 is being played
Dm (10th fret)
I . . . Who took the money?
Who took the money away?
I . . . It's always showtime
Here at the edge of the stage
I, I, I, wake up and wonder
What was the place, what was the name?
We wanna wait, but here we go again...
Dm (10th fret)
Down, down in the basement
We hear the sound of machines
I, I, I'm driving in circles
Come to my senses sometimes
Why, why, why, why start it over?
Nothing was lost, everthing's free
I don't care how impossible it seems

Whatabout the time?
You were rollin' over
Fall on your face
You must be having fun
Walk lightly!
Think of a time.
You'd best believe
This think is real
Put away that gun
This part is simple
Try to recognize
What is in you mind
God help us!
Help us loose our minds
These slippery people
help us understand
I remember when
Sittin' in the tub
Pulled out the plug
The water was runnin' out
Cool down
Stop acting crazy
They're gonna leave
And we'll be on our own
Seven times five
They were living creatures
Watch 'em come to life
Right before your eyes
Backsliding!
How do you do?
These slippery people
Gonna see you through

She's making sure she is not dreaming

Signs
Signs are lost
Signs disappeared
Turn invisible
Got no sign
Somebody got busted
Got a face of stone
And a ghostwritten biography
Dogs start to run in,
Hungry for some food
Dogs start a-twitching
And they're looking at you
It was light
By five
Torn all apart
All in the name of democracy
He's hurt
He's dying
Claimed he was a terrorist
Claimed to avert a catastrophe
Someone should'a told him
That the buck stops here
No one ever said
That he was involved with thieves
And they're blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Living in the trees
D A D
The birdies and the bees
A D
'Cause I'm a nature boy
|:D |A :|
Locked up inside
You can't tell me where it's at
Open up, open up, open the door
Rocks and trees and physical culture
Some days you hide
I guess you wonder where you are
Nature boy, nature man, take me along
We got a life that's undiscovered
D Em D Em
I'm a little fish and you're the river
D Em D Em
Living in a boat that's underwater
D Em D Em
We can tip, tip, tip it over

You can push, push, make it better now

Wake your daddy up
It's a quarter to five
Our little boat

Has lost it's rudder
D
Dive to the bottom
And we never come up
A polka party
A
For Bob and Martha
|:D |A :|
I'm absolutely free
living in the trees
The birdies and the bees
'Cause I'm a nature boy
Think what you like
This is really where it's at
Open up, open up, open the door
We don't need clothes and we don't need money
So civilized
I guess you wonder where you are
Nature boy, nature man, take me along
Deep in the woods we're undiscovered
|:C :|
'Round and 'round
and we won't let go
And where we stop
no one knows
uh-huh uh-huh

Think about

what ev'ryone is saying

Ruby dear, oh don't you hear
|:D | |Bb | :|
Late at night
when the radio is playing
Ruby dear
So looky here
|:C (Bb) C :|
Oh this record's broken
It slips a beat
And all those watermelons
Have gone to seed
|:D | |Bb | :|
Nothing lives
in this dirty little river
No one here
Will shed a tear
It dried up
but it couldn't run forever
Ruby dear
That's what we hear
|:C (Bb):|
I still like the ocean
Down by the sea
They left that door wide open
It tempted me
|:D | |Bb | :|
Hounding me
from the bedroom to the kitchen
Ruby dear
I'm still right here
Now they throwed
the fox amongst the chickens
It's too deep
I'll drown in my sleep!
|:C (Bb):|
Angels and prostitutes
They might look the same
And if to Hell we're going
I'll see you there
|:D :|
C
'Round and 'round
and we won't let go
And where we stop
no one knows
uh-huh uh-huh
Settle down
in that rocking chair
Breathing in
that rotten air
uh-huh uh-huh
Johnny Jones
fell fast asleep
Down a hole
where the rocks are steep

Now, it's nothing but flowers

There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
you got it, you got it
We caught a rattlesnake
Now we got something for dinner
we got it, we got it
|:B |F# |E :|
There was a shopping mall
Now it's all covered with flowers
you've got it, you've got it
If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
you've got it, you've got it
|:A |E |D :|

This used to be real estate
Now it's only fields and trees
A Cm#
Where, where is the town
Bm E
Now, it's nothing but flowers
|:Bm |F# :|
The highways and cars
Were sacrificed for agriculture
Dm A
I thought that we'd start over
E
But I guess I was wrong
|:A |E |D :|
Once there were parking lots
Now it's a peaceful oasis
you got it, you got it
|:B |F# |E :|
I miss the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
you got it, you got it
[SOLO] |:A |E |D :|
We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
you got it, you got it

Found out this morning, there's a circus coming to town
D Am(+7) D Am(+7)
They drive in Cadillacs, using walky talkies and the secret service

Their big top, imitation of life

and all the flags and microphones

they have to cover their eyes
D Am(+7) D Am(+7)
We play the sideshow and we like the tunnel of love

And when we ride the ferris wheel, we're little children again

And when they're asking for volunteers
E Asus4
we'll be the first one aboard

And when the ringmaster calls our name
E Asus4 Am(+7)
we'll be the first one to go ... to sleep
D Am(+7) D Am(+7)
Stealing all our dreams, dreams for sale

They'll sell 'em back to you
D Am(+7) D Am(+7)
On with the show, start the parade
D Am(+7) D Am(+7)
We sang along, sweep us away
D Am(+7) D Am(+7)
It's political party time, going down, going down, going down
D Am(+7)
And the celebrities all come out
D Am(+7)
Coming down coming down, coming ...
The sun is going down and the dogs are starting to howl
We stay out after dark, eating cotton candy and the music's playing ...
Gonna rain,
gonna rain, gonna rain
gonna rain, gonna rain
rain, rain
rain, rain
In the last part I didn't put the chords 'cause it's all a repeating thing.

The facts of life

A masterpiece
Biology
Smokey water
Air conditioned
Boys 'n' girls

Chromosomes

Machines of love
Machines of love
Strong in body, strong in mind
A love machine with the facts of life
The facts of life
The facts of life
So much sex 'n' violence
Must be a bad design
We're stupid to be fighting
Every night

The monsters we create
They welcome us aboard
The best in advertising
From coast to coast
The girls and boys combine
Like monkeys in the zoo
The clouds have silver linings
Looks pretty good
|:G C(+G) :|
People fall in love like in fairy tales
I'm not sure I like, what they can do
I'm afraid that God has no master plan
He only takes -- what he can use
Factory life, ice cream & pie
Factory life
Someday we'll live on Venus
And men will walk on Mars
But we will still be monkeys
Down deep inside
If chimpanzees are smart
Then we will close our eyes
And let our instincts guide us
Oh oh oh oh no

It's best left unspoken
One and one is two
The velvet lies sing softly
Each with a golden spoon
Bb C
And she passed her time in the wind and the rain
Bb C
Got a one way ticket on a Southbound train
Bb C
Said baby, baby, wants to have a good time
Bb
And Big Daddy laughed
C
And Big Daddy smiled
|:D# |C :|
Like dynamite
One fine day she'll explode
Who's laughing now?
No one sees anymore
Sneak in and out
Don't get caught running 'round
Swim back and forth
Bubbles float to the top

From end to end ... The noise begins ... In the
human battle stations ... And the big one's
coming in

Work, work, work, work ... Work till holes are
filled ... Work, work, work, work ... Bags of

Lovers hold hands ... Tossing
their heads ... Tangled in hair ... Tied to earth
... With skin and glue

But their skin is the same as yours
Coming in for the world to see
They can sit at the table, too
The same blood as you and me
