Intro: D  Dsus4  D[5x]

G
She lives on Pony Street
G                                 
And they should scatter flowers at
      C
 her feet
    D              C         G
But when they come calling I think 
it's appalling
        Am        D        G
They're sober and they're polite
        D           C          G
They're deeply respectful when I 
would expect them
    Am                          D
To keep her out all night
G
That little martinet
G                    C
Will get her own way yet
   D             C         G
If you need instruction in mindless 
destruction
     Am         D        G
I'll show you a thing or two
    D          C         G       
You used to adore me but now my 
            Am
life flashes before me
    D
For you to view

   D           A           D     
Oh mother, oh mother, sometimes 
       G         Em
you are so mortifying
         D             A           
From the hole in your leopard skin 
D            G                  Em
tights I can tell you've been spying

    D         A        D        
But your generation confesses 
G             Em
before it transgresses
      D        A         D       
Those Super-8 movies of daddy in 
G          Em
your disco dresses

G
If you're going out tonight

I won't wait up

Watching "Home Shopping Club"
             D
While you're flogging a dead horse
C       G        D     G
All the way down Pony Street
D              G        D

C       G        D     G
All the way down Pony Street

The life and the soul of every 
     C
indiscretion

That lives on, that lives on, that 
lives on

D             A            D    
Daughter, oh daughter, you know 
        G          Em
I will love you forever
     D           A            D  
But spare me the white ankle 
            G           Em
socks with the lace and the leather
    F            A       D       
For you and your cartoon threat 
      G        Em
do no good to resist me
    F         A      D           
For I am the genuine thing but 
   G             Em
for you it's just history

Where you lay your pretty head

Where you live after a fashion
C       G        D    G
All the way down Pony Street
    D            G           
The life and the soul of every 
       C
indiscretion

That lives on, That lives on
Am              A             A
That lives on, That lives on, That 
lives on
