Intro: E
E(Born to) Born to multC#miply, born to gaze into F#mnight skies,
All you wAant's one moreF#m SaturdayE.
But look here, until tC#mhen
They're gonna buy your F#mnice time
So keep your Awick in the air and your F#mfeet in the fetters
BTo the day.
You come in doing Ecartwheels
We all crawl out by Bourselves
And your shape on the Edance floor
Will have me thinking such Bfilth and gouge my eyes.
You'd be daC#mmned to be oAne of us girl
C#mFaced with a Adodo's conundrum
EAh, I F#mfelt like I could justA fly
But nG#mothing happened every time I Btried.
Wooh OoooEh
A dual tone on theC#m wall
The selfless fool who hoped he'd F#msave us all
Never drAeamt of such stF#merile hands E
You keep them folded in your C#mlap
And raise them up toF#m beg for scraps
You know he's Aholding you down with the F#mtips of his fingers
BJust the same
Will you be pulled from Ethe ocean
But just a minute Btoo late
Or changed by a Epotion
And find a handsome youngB mate for you to love
You'll be C#mdamned to pining through the Awindow panes, you know
C#mYou'll change your life for any Aordinary EJoe F#m
Well do it now or grow olAd
Your nightmares G#monly need a year or two to unBfold

Been alone since you were twenty-one
You haven't laughed since January
You try and make like this is so much fun
But we know it to be quite contrary
La la la la la la la
Dare to be one of us girl
Faced with the android's conundrum
Ah, I felt like I should just cry
But nothing happens every time I take one on the chin
You're Himmler in your coat you don't know how long I have been
Watching the lantern dim starved of oxygen
So give me your hand and let's jump out the window.
