Verse 2:  
 
Gm G Eb Bb  
My Amazon six-triggered bride  
(Bb) Cm Gm  
Now searching for a place to hide  
(Gm) G Eb Bb  
Still sees truth quite easily  
(Bb) Cm Gm  
Shrouds all else in mystery  
Cm Eb7 Gm  
While madmen in top hats and tails  
Cm Eb7 Gm  
Impale themselves on six inch nails  
Bb Gm Cm Gm  
And some Arabian also-ran  
Bb Gm Cm Gm  
Impersonates a watering can  
 
[repeat intro w/full band after each verse]  
 
Verse 2:  
 
Some Santa Claus-like face of note  
Entreats my ears to set afloat  
My feeble, sick, and weary brain  
And I am overcome with shame  
And hide inside my overcoat  
And hurriedly begin to quote  
And some Arabian sheik most grand  
Impersonates a hot dog stand  
 
Instrumental break:  
 
(guitar solo over verse chords)  
 
Verse 3:  
 
Red Cross ambulance outside  
Could only mean that I must hide  
'Til dusk and finally the night  
When I will make a hasty flight  
Across the sea and far away  
To where the weary exiles stay  
And some Arabian oil well  
Impersonates a padded cell  
 
Coda:  
 
Bb Gm Cm Gm  
And some Arabian oil well  
Bb Gm Cm Gm  
Impersonates a padded cell  
 
[repeat intro; end cold on last Gm of 2nd repeat]
