Verse 1
ESharks follow my Abmtrail, Bmand it won't be loDmng
AThey've fallen for the C#moldest trick in the D2book
It never goes Dmwrong oh oh
AMask and snorkel and a Ebottle of ketchup
Oh those F#mdesperate old shark fins start to Dcircle me in anger
Chorus
Oh be Aclever not beautiful, oh be Eclever not beautiful
If your F#mgoal is plain survival well then be Dclever Enot beautiA2ful
Verse 2
EPoets lock up your Abmwords, Bmyour tongues are all Dmtied
ABut let it read in C#mevery history D2book
That the poets all Dmtried to
ALull us with lilting, Esongs of a struggle
To F#mmountain up an ocean that we were Dsomething more than animals
Chorus
Be Aclever not beautiful, be Eclever not beautiful
If your F#mgoal is plain survival well then be Dclever Enot beautiC#mful
Bridge
Not like your Dface, as you roam in the F#mgarden
Not as the C#mearthworms gather beDneath your feet
You F#mgive it all aEway for Dfree E
As we F#msun our winter Ebellies in your Dspring
