E  A  G  C  D
C             D                G              C
Fish & Chips, Sandpaper Lips & a rainy pavement 
F            C              D              G
Soho lights, another night, thinking of you, 
C          D              G                C
Black cat, sat on a wall, winks at me darkly 
F               C              D                G
suggesting ways and means that I might win a smile 
C                D              G                C
as you leave the place where you work, until 12.30 
F             C                D                  G
and the Policeman nods as you pass along his beat 
C            D                   G                    C
Sweaty feet, troubled brow we're all in the same game lady 
F                           C                 D          G
Lifes no bowl of cherries, it's a black and white strip cartoon 
 
D                 Em          G                A
I've been warned that you and your friends are crazy 
G                  D                 E            A
as from your heart you bear your parts to the Gentlemen 
           C                       D
Who, while they drool trying to keep cool 
G                       C
Spill their scotch and water 
F                      C            D                   G
But I'm not that way, I must say... I'd much prefer to see... 
C              D               G                  C
You in your texturised rubber rainwear around 12.30 
F               C                   D                    G
Come and play, shades of grey in my Black and White strip cartoon 
 
D              Em   G          D
Strip cartoon is all I'm after 
G               D      E      A
Strip cartoon is all I crave 
C           D        G           C
So come to my place..around 12.30 
       F     C                 D          G
Cause I'm a leading Politician at a dangerous age 
 
D     E     G     D     G     E     A    x2
Tu--Du Du Du 
D              Em   G          D
Strip cartoon is all I'm after 
G               D      E      A
Strip cartoon is all I crave 
C           D        G           C
So come to my place..around 12.30 
       F     C                 D          G
