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

I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen

Every sensible child will know what this means

The poor and the needy

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

And when I'm lying in my bed

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

Ohhhh, ohhh, ohhhh
