[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][C][D][G]
[D][G][C]
[D]

[Verse 1]
You've [G]heard the squawk
of the British toonhawk
From his lofty perch on [D]high
As he hunts with a [G]zeal
for his [C]favourite meal
Which [G]is an humble pie
Though his favourite [D]fare
is mince and clare
[G]Served with peacock's [D]tongue
He [G]likes raw steak mixed with
[C]yellow cake,
but he [G]never eat[D]s his y[G]oung.[C]
[G][D][G][C][D][G]
[C][D]
Not a [G]peacock bird,
he looks superb, stately and digni[D]fied.
But it's [G]all just [C]show,
cause like A .Z .O.,
[D]nothing much happens inside.
[G]His usual habitat [D]is far[G] too rye[D],
come off a [G]tribe called Arnie [D]Farties.
He's a [G]flashy [C]pet of the swinging,
set [D]-marching, demanding party
Quack[G], quack, quack, q[C]uack, quack, quack, q[G]uack, quack, q[D]uack, quack, quack,
[G]quack, q[C]uack, quack, qu[D]ack, quack, quack[G][C][G][D]
[G]If you venture forth up
to the north,
you might not find much [D]culture
But you [G]find a nest at that
[C]well -known pest,
the [G]brassneck, [D]queens and vulture
This [G]vulture has [D]a parrot for a wife
They're like [G]Peter Pan and [D]Wendy
To Aces, [G]Paragons,
Meet [C]Pumpkin Scans
And occa[G]sional lib[D]eral [G]trendy[C]
[G][D][G][C][D][G]
[C][G][D]
[G]There's an island state
across Brass Strait
Where the weather's often [D]murky
And [G]in that [C]land of rivers and dams
Lives a [G]small Tas[D]manian turkey
This stubborn coot's like [G]King Canute,
against the tide he's
always kick[D]in'
Though he [G]goes gobble gobble,
who [C]thinks he's an eagle,
when every[G]body knows he's a chicken
[C][G][D][G][C][G]
[C][G][D]
[G]So [D]set[G] no store for those who soar,
they're all birds [D]of a feather
They'll [G]sing the same tune,
they'll prom[C]ise you the moon,
then [G]they'll all flock up togeth[D]er
I've [G]often [D]thought that [G]you should
[D]not look [G]up to those who [D]fly
For [G]if you do, I'm [C]telling you, Blair,
they'll [G]fall right [D]in your [G]eye

[Outro 1]
