Verse 1:
FA SOL7/FA
Your multilingual business friend
SIb/FA FA
Has packed her bags and fled
FA SOL7/FA
Leaving only ash-filled ashtrays
SIb/FA FA
And the lipsticked unmade bed
REm SOLm
The mirror, a reflection
FA/DO DO
Has climbed back upon the wall
FA SOL7/FA
For the floor she found descended
SIb/FA FA
And the ceiling was too tall
Chorus
FA SIb
Your trouser cuffs are dirty
SOL DO
And your shoes are laced up wrong
LA7 REm FA/DO
You'd better take off your homburg
SIb FA
'Cause your overcoat is too long
[repeat intro]
Verse 2:
The town clock in the market square
Stands waiting for the hour
When its hands they won't turn backwards
And on meeting will devour
Both themselves and also any fool
Who dares to tell the time
And the sun and moon will shatter
And the signposts cease to sign
[repeat chorus]
