[INTRO]
| D | D | D | D |
[VERSE 1]
D
I had the rug pulled from under my feet
But I didn't feel a thing
I can't believe the luck I seem to have
And the joy that good luck brings
[CHORUS]
G D
When I die I'll re-turn as a housefly
A# C Bm
And land u-pon her wall
A# G
So I can see who she'll end up with
Em
If it's anyone at all
Bm
Did I say that?
A D
How could anyone be so wicked and cru-el?
[VERSE 2]
D
I sat and listened to the radio
A landscape of moving noise
She was busy looking through the curtains
Her nose in a distant void
[CHORUS]
G D
Then I thought I would come back as a spider
G C Bm
Because she hates them so much
A# G
They get sprayed down the bathroom plughole
Em
Can I expect the same touch
Dm
Maybe not then
A D G
Because beneath it all we're wicked and cru-el
[BRIDGE]
D D
Shut up, listen to the radio
C A# G
I can't help feeling I've been stepped on
[CHORUS]
Em
She likes to kick like a mule
Bm
Did I say that?
A D
How could anyone be so wicked and cru-el?
Em Bm
If I come back as her would I love me
A D
How could anyone be so wicked and cru-el?
Em
She likes to think I'm a fool
Dm
Two fools in love
A G D
How could anyone be so wicked and cru-el?
[OUTRO]
D
Wicked and cruel
How could anyone be so wicked and cruel?
How could anyone be so wicked and cruel?
How could anyone be so wicked and cruel?

Could I expect the same touch?
