It dawns on me that your attention derives
  D
From the girlfriend that you left at home
  D
Sitting in the living room all alone


   D           F#m
You hate the suntan
              D            F#m                    D

Why's that not allowed

(Same chord pattern)

If you bide your time and you stand there and you wait in line
It wont be long before her sarong is lying on your bedroom floor
But what about the girlfriend that you left at home
Sitting in the living room all alone

You hate the suntan
And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man
And the groups of girls who are singing dead loud
Because they do my head in
You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads
The ones who cannot handle their booze
They're making you scared to be proud

From the girlfriend that you left at home
Sitting in the living room all alone
You hate the suntan
And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man
And the gaggle of girls who are singing too loud
Because they do my head in
You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads
The ones who cannot handle their booze
And they're making you scared to be proud
Why is that not allowed
