[ Tab from: bttp://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/fugs/dirty_old_man_crd_ver_2.btml ]
H[E]angin' out by the sc[A]hoolyard g[E]ate
L[E]ookin' up every dr[A]ess I c[E]an
S[A]uckin' wind through my upper plate
I[E]'m a d[A]irty old m[E]an (dirty old man, dirty old man)
([1] you f*ckin' dirty old man [2] disgusting!)
Verse 2:
Handin' out joints to the kids at school
Givin' out pictures and porn and pills
Fillin' the front of my shirt with drool
I'm a dirty old man (dirty old man, dirty old man)
([2] ya prevert!)
Verse 3:
Nervously wiggling my toes in my boots
Communist literature in my hands
Pinchin' all the bosoms I can
I'm a dirty old man (dirty old man, dirty old man)
([2] you!)
[instrumental break over verse cbords]
Recitation (over two repeats of verse chords)
[cackle] Hello, kiddies, here I am again on the ol' schoolyard! I
got *thrill pills* for all the little chickies, and I got *funny
cigarettes* for all you boys [sniff], and I got *dirty pictures* for
all of you together! Well, I guess I better go, I see the campus
cop's coming... I better split now. Remember Leon Trotsky! [cackle]
[repeat verses 1-3]
Coda:
I[A]'m a d[B]irty old m[E]an
