Architecture And Morality Ted And Alice

Bb
The wonderful dexterity of Hannu 
Mikkula
Bb
Makes me want to shake hands with 
the whole of Finland
Bb
But the horrible sincerity of Miriam
 Stoppard
Bb
Makes me want to go out and commit 
mass murder.


[Chorus]

  Am                    Em      
I rang Jane Scott for a genuine 
Am
friend,
She was otherwise engaged so I 
Em               Am
looked round the bend
                             Em    
I saw the wheels of nihilism 
     Am
rolling my way
And now I live life in the bus lane
 Em Am

Yeah, I live life in the bus lane.
Em Am



Continues after the ad
[Verse 2]

Bb
The halcyonic dynamo that lit up my 
childhood
Bb
Made me feel secure on the roads in 
winter
Bb
But the nauseating bashfulness of 
early Diana
Bb
Made me want to set fire to 
commemorative tea towels.


[Chorus 2]

  Am                           
I walked across the road with a 
 Em          Am
peach in my hand
                           Em      
A hammer hit my head and I couldn't
      Am
 understand
                         Em        
Behind me stood a maniac laughing 
  Am
at me saying
                            Em Am
“I like to watch the adverts
                              Em Am
Yeah, I saw it in the adverts.


[Interlude]

              C         F        
You fold your grandma’s neck and 
G              Dm
smother her in custard
     C            F       C
As a contribution to your folio
                  F           G   
And the very next morning you take
          Dm
 her into college
        C              F          
And the tutor with the beard and 
   C
the polio
                         F         
Says “Well yeah it’s got potential 
       G               Dm
and it could well be essential
       C                 F        
But it should be more dramatic if 
    C                  Bb
you know what I mean”.


[Coda]

         Fm          Am        
Have you tuned in to Radio Dada, 
                          D
every Friday evening at six in the 
morning?
Bb       Fm           Am        
Scan the airwaves for Radio Dada
                          D        
 – it goes something like this…..
