Yes! I'll tell you everything you need to be the next big thing; let's
Em (sim.) Am F#dim
start in with a test of your intelligence and
B7
zest for the counter-productive;
Em Am F#dim B7
up and down and roundabout and out the back and keep your mouth shut tight!
Em Am F#dim B7
The lights are staying out but no sweat, I've got aim like a Mack truck.
Em Am F#dim B7
Guess how many fingers? Okay! Guess how many more I can stick there?
Em Am F#dim B7
Guess right gets the toaster but you know, miss, guessing gets you nowhere.
