HELP Is On The Way
1977

G
Stark naked in front of my mirror
C
A pudgy person somehow did appear
D
Seems lately all I've eaten's sugar and fat

A big pot and tripley chin Oh what condition my condition was in Laughing at myself at what a crying shame Whatever happened to my Greek godly frame?
Em
B7
C
G
Cyclamates, juicy steaks, sweet things too
Am7
D7
G
Aren't always good as they seem
Em
B7
C
G
Doughy lumps, stomach pumps, enemas too
Am7
D7
G
That's what you get when you eat that way
I read a book on organic foods Jumped on a health food kick put me in the mood You may not get to perfect overnight But on the way you're feeling clean out of sight We ate tonight at Fairfax and 3rd We're gonna spread the news and give you the word We hope that soon you'll eat like we did today We're mighty thankful now that HELP's on its way Salad with a special knock you right off your seat With carrot juice to wash it all down Yummy carob cookies are an organic treat And HELP has got the best food in town
G
H-E-L-P HELP your education creates much benefit and peace
Hamburgers and hot-dogs throw 'em all out You'll feel so good you'll jump up and shout If you haven't why don't you go shopping today And 'member now that HELP's on its way
