{key: G}

[First Verse]

G C

I'm not strong like Charles Atlas or fast like the Flash,

D C G

I'm not handsome like Matt Damon and I don't have wads of cash,

C

If you need a man to love you, then I'm the guy, you bet,

D G

and just to let you know, What You See Is What You Get.

[Second Verse]

G C

I've got wrinkles all around my eyes and grey upon my head,

D C G

and truth be told I'd have to say I've been known to fart in bed,

C

I've got two arms to hold you and two lips warm and wet,

D G

and in terms of full disclosure, What You See Is What You Get.

[Bridge]

C G

It's taken more than fifty years for me to get this way

D C G

I'm nearly half the man I was, ten years ago today

C G

I wake up way too early and I stay up far too late

D G

And if there's one thing that I've learned, we all depreciate

[Third verse]

G C

I've got an artificial eye and half my teeth come out

D C G

and while watching Bill O'Reilly I've a tendency to shout,

C

If you need a loving heart that can only love you true,

D C G

give me a call, I've got it all, and I'll give it all to you.

[Fourth verse]

G C

With asthma and diabetes it always seems I'm sick

D C G

But when I see the doctor he fixes me up quick

C

With prescriptions all around me I'm pretty much all set

D G

I haul it all in a pickup truck and What You See Is What You Get.

[Bridge]

C G

Once I could make love all night but now it's all that I can do

D C G

to keep from going flaccid trying to remember what to do

C G

I see commericals for Viagra and for Cialis too

D G

just like in the Matrix, I don't know which one to choose.

[Fifth verse]

G C

I'm not into office politics, I don't play those games so well

D C G

Those soul-less corporate devils can all go straight to hell

C

This song is almost over but it's not quite finished yet

D G

No, I won't candy-coat it, What You See is What You Get.

[Sixth verse]

G C

If you're looking for perfection, well just keep walking by.

D C G

I won't win a beauty contest I'm an ordinary guy

C

I grew up the class clown and not the "teacher's pet"

D G

by now I hope you understand, What You See Is What You Get.

[Bridge]

C G

Now it's lunch of Sonic hot dogs and banana split deserts

D C G

Don't get all excited and think it's time to call the hearse

C G

Yes, the song is finished and I'm singing the last set

D G

And in my mind I'm doing fine and What You See is What You Get.
