Blockheads Ian Dury and The Blockheads
----------------.............................
You [E]must have seen parties of Blockheads;
With [D]blotched and lagered skin.
[A] Blockheads with food particles in their teeth,
What a [E]horrible state they're in. [D] [A]
Verse 2:
They've got [E]womanly breasts under pale mauve vests,
[D] Shoes like dead pigs' noses.
[A] Cornflake packet jacket, catalogue trousers,
A [E]mouth what never closes.
Verse 3:
You [E]must have seen Blockheads in raucous teams,
[D] Dressed up after work.
Who [A]screw their poor old Eileens,
Get [E]sloshed and go berserk.[D] [A]
Verse 4:
[E] Rotary accessory watches,
Hire-[D]purchase, signet rings.
A [A]beauty to the bully boys,
No [E]lonely vestige clings. [D] [A]
Verse 5:
Why [E]bother at all about Blockheads?
Why [D]shouldn't they do as they please?
You know [A]if it came to a brainy game,
You could [E]baffle a Blockhead with ease.[D] [A]
Break:
[D] How would you like one,
Puffing and blowing in your ear-hole?
[E] Or pissing in your swimming pool? [D] [A]
Interlude:
E, D A
Verse 6:
[E] Bigger brained Blockheads often acquire;
[D] Black and orange cars.
[A] Premature ejaculation drivers,
Their [E]soft-top's got roll-bars.[D] [A]
Verse 7:
[E] "Fill her up", they say to Blockheads,
"Go on, [D]stick it where it hurts".
Their [A]shapeless haircuts don't enhance;
Their [E]ghastly patterned shirts.[D] [A]
Verse 8:
Why [E]bother at all about Blockheads,
Su-[D]perior as you are?
You're [A]thoughtful and kind,
With a well-stocked mind,
A [E]Blockhead can't think very far.[D] [A]
Break:
[D] Imagine finding one in your laundry basket,
[E] Banging nails in your big black dog.[D] [A]
Solo:
E, D, A, D A
Verse 9:
Why [E]bother at all about Blockheads?
Why should [D]you care what they do?
'Cos [A]after all is said and done;
[E] You're a Blockhead too. [D] [A]
Break:
(Instrumental):
D, E, D A
Outro:
[E] Blockheads, Blockheads,
[D] Blockheads, Blockheads,
[A] Blockheads, Blockheads,
[E] Blockheads, Blockheads.[D] [A]
(Repeat to Fade)
