The Boys Light Up
View chords used in this chart
A música segue assim : (Bm G A Bm)
I wanna tell you about my mountain home, where all the ladies names are
Joan
Where husband works back late at night - hopes are up for trousers
down with the hostess on the business flight
Taxi in a mercedes drive - I hope that drivers coming out alive
That garden in his door-sitive, that lady is so coarse-ative she's got
fifty ways to lead that boy astray
She's his one and only but that lovely, she's so lonely - she pumps
him full of breakfast and she sends him on his way
Bridge
One sing-song dance, one per-for-mance, one cheap day show, oh no no
no no no
[Refrão]Then the boys light up, then the boys light up, then the boys light up,
then the boys light up
V2
Silently she opens the drawer - mother's little helper is coming out for
more
Strategically positioned before the midday show
The back is arched, those lips are parched, repeated blow by blow
And later at the party, where all the MPs rave
About the hummers* she's been givin' and the money that they've saved
For her it's just skin lotion, and promotion too
That flat in Surfer's Paradise with the ocean view
Repeat bridge
Repeat chorus
