Em G C G
Shrieks of sheiks as they run across the movie screen
Em G C G
A thousand sand dune soldiers led by an Arabian queen
Em G C G
And the harem girls move like fancy dancers in my dirty dream
Em C G
And I wake up on the floor holding a bed lamp
Em
Mama, she comes in and screams
G C G
"Woo! You been out with that tramp again last nigh
Em G
That silver sequined ivory black bitch
C G
You know, the one that Mama don't like"
Em G
You see, but, Mama, she sings me moon time melodies
C G
With this great Top 40 hook
Em G C G
But Mama don't care, Papa he just stares and says,
Em C G
"Mary, look the girl's alright, yeah, look the girl's alright"
C D Em G C G
And there's a tenseness in the air, don't you know, can't you feel
C D Em G C G
There's something hanging there, pull back the mist and reveal it
C G C G
C D Em G C G
Even if you fear what you hear, try to conceal it
C D Em G C G
And if what Mama feels is too real, she just claims she don't feel it
C Em C G Em C G C
So come out from behind your bunkers, the liftoff's been a bust
C Em C G Em C G
Papa's gone and Mama's dead and buried in my rocket dust'
C Em C G D
You're alone now for the first time, but that's alright
Em C
Because all fear will completely disappear come the Arabian night
Em G C G
The soundman smiles and turns the dials to set the meter reading rising
Em G C
He pulls the singer's voice from out of his pocket to see how the audience
G
likes it
Em G
And in the very first row sits sweet Jenny Rue with a bell on her shoe, she
C G
wants him to mic it
Em G
He flicks a switch but Jenny moves too fast and the audience sways to the
C G
sound of her shotgun blast
Em G
The manager runs out, "Check the band's arms for bullet holes and make that
C G
man roll up his sleeves"
