All American Alien Boy

C                                 
Well I packed my bags in the land 
                        F
of rags, 'Cos I don't believe in 
them dimmo drags
                         G         
Don't wanna vote for the left wing,
 don't wanna vote for the right, I 
           C
gotta have both to make me fly
C                                 
Just a whitey from Blighty heading
                               F
 out west, got my little green card 
and my bulletproof vest
                  G              
Going to old tube city, where the 
                               C   
buzz is the best, on down the line,
F          C   G
 down the line

[Verse 2]
C                                 
Well I was born and I was raised. 
      F
I was schooled and I was fazed
          G                        
And I was used and I was dazed, 
         C    F            C     G
just had to split, 'cos I was crazed
C                                 
Well I remember all the good times
                        F
 me and Miller enjoyed, up and down 
the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
        G
But the future has to change and to 
change, I've got to destroy
    C
Oh, look out Lennon, here I come, 
land ahoy-hoy-hoy

Don't look down, put your feet on

the ground, don't drown in the big 
 C

G                                 
Don't walk slow, put on a big 
             F            
show, shove your meat down 
 C
vegetarians
G
Don't get slugged, get mugged, get 
bugged or, they'll sling you in the 
jug
Shove you under some rug, give you 
some drug, pull out the plug and 
C
then

C
And they're telling me this 
hamburger's cheaper than the other

And this television's cheaper than

And they're selling me hot dogs 
cheaper than the other

I've got sodium nitrate rotting in 
my guts, my head's full of ulcers
                              F
I got lungs full of butts, my heart 
wants a transplant

It thinks that I'm nuts, my logic 
won't open, my eyes won't shut
          G                        
And I'm beginning to dig all this, 
                            C

[Verse 6]
C
And your women are always right, 
they always know so much more
         F
'Cos the women came from heaven and 
the men came outta some store
         G
And they don't know who they are and
 they don't know what they're for
            C
Well I'm an All American Alien Boy, 
look out Mary Tyler Moore
