[Verse 1]
AAsus4A
Well the dog act got drunk again last night
F#mDBm
And the King and Queen of the waltz clog team had another fight
DA
King was careless with his tango grip
EBm
Nearly lost his Queen in a dip
DA
Yeah, she righted herself, straightened out her slip
E
and kicked him in the shin
[Verse 2]
AAsus4A
Miss Billy Begonia thinks she's hit the big time
F#mD
She wants a thick red rug from the dressing room door
Bm
To the frontline of the footlights
DA
She's got a sky blue swandown powder puff
EBm
and a corset to keep her spirts up
DA
Yeah, she don't sweat, she sours and melts
E
Like ice cream in the sun
Bm
She'll be out of a job at the end of this
D/C#D
Three week run
[Chorus]
DADDsus2
We're havin fun out here, on Panic Beach
ADDsus2
All the Vaudeville bums are here, out on Panic Beach
F#m
I hear them talk about the Palace
B
But its so far out of reach
DA
So I'll do my time
EAA/BA/C#D
Then say goodbye to Panic Beach
AA/BA/C#D
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 3]
AAsus4A
The visionary theatric strikes a juggler's seesaw tune
F#mD
and the dying swan pirouettes and fawns
Bm
by the light of the street lamp moon
DA
When my trunk is filled with taffeta
EBm
Those big time hacks won't laugh at us
DA
Well, my taps are made of silver
E
I can make the kiddies thrill for just one buck and wing
BmD
Yeah, I will nail them to my heel and the Panic choir sings
[Chorus]
DADDsus2
Here comes a lucky little thing to Panic Beach
ADDsus2
yeah, you know we got to teach him how to sing while we're stuck on Panic Beach
F#m
Ah, the way ya hear em say it
DB
Doesn't seem so out of reach
DA
So I'll do my time
EAA/BA/C#D
Then say goodbye to Panic Beach
AA/BA/C#D
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
N/C
Well the landlord gets a free show, every Saturday at six
F#mDBm
Sometimes on Sunday all dependin' on whatever kind of mood he's in
DA
I keep his glass filled up with sherry
EBm
And sing him all his favorite songs
DA
If a tear comes to his eye, he may let
E
A month go by before he takes away my key
Bm
Oh, that sherry, starts to taste real good to me
[Chorus]
DADDsus2
Hey mama, mama, mama, look at me on Panic Beach
DADDsus2
I may be hungry but my rent is free up on Panic Beach
F#m
yeah, I can almost see the Palace
B
No longer out of reach
DA
So I'll do my time
EAA/BA/C#D
Then say goodbye to Panic Beach
AA/BA/C#D
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
