Dm
G
Am
And a simple case of mummy-dont-love-me blues Reality it seems, was just a dream She couldn't get it on, with the boys on the scene But what do you expect from a chick who's just sixteen And hey hey hey (hey hey hey) you know what I mean
F#m7b5

All the young girls love Alice

Alice it's my turn today All the young girls love Alice Tender young Alice they say If I give you my number, will you promise to call me? Wait 'til my husband's away Poor little darling, with a chip out of her heart It's like acting in a movie, when you've got the wrong part Getting your kicks, in another girl's bed And it was only last Tuesday, oh, they found you in the subway dead And who could you call your friends down in Soho? One or two, middle aged dykes in a go-go? And what do you expect from a sixteen year old yo-yo? And hey hey hey (hey hey hey) oh, don't you know All the young girls love Alice Tender young Alice they say Come over and see me, come over and please me Alice it's my turn today All the young girls love Alice Tender young Alice they say If I give you my number, will you promise to call me? Wait 'til my husband's away

Where you really kick the shit when the sun goes down

Let me take you honey where the scene's on fire"

Oh your sister can't twist but she can rock and roll

She can pull the wool over little old me

I'm a genuine example of a social disease My landlady lives in a caravan Well that is when she isn't in my arms And it seems I pay the rent in human kindness But my liquor also helps to grease her palm And the ladies are all getting wrinkles And they're falling apart at the seams Well I just get high on tequila And see visions of vineyards in my dreams And I get bombed for breakfast in the morning I get bombed for dinnertime and tea I dress in rags, smell a lot, and have a real good time I'm a genuine example of a social disease And the ladies are all getting wrinkles And they're falling apart at the seams Well I just get high on tequila

And see visions of vineyards in my dreams And I get bombed for breakfast in the morning I get bombed for dinner time and tea I dress in rags, smell a lot, and have a heart of gold I'm a genuine example of a social disease
