She’s only 18
Don't like the Rolling Stones
She took the shortcut
To being fully grown
She got the mood ring
A little sister rose
A smell of Springsteen
A pair of pantyhoes

This talking picture show
Is leaking from a silhouette
She said my man you know
It's time to get your fingers wet

You hustle's busted when
You can't afford a cigarette
The last I heard from you
You were screaming "Handle It!"

CHORUS

 C5         Eb5
Knock the world
              G5
Right of its feet and
          F5
Straight unto its head
 C5         Eb5
Oompala
              G5
They’re only laughing after
 F5
You are dead
 C5         Eb5
Fascinated
        G5
By the look of you
     F5
And what was said
 C5         Eb5
Make a play
               Eb7
For all the brightest minds
                D
And light will shed

I heard some P-Funk
Out on the road again
To get your head shrunk
Is what I recommend
It's in your bloodline
A perfect Frankenstein
Out on the lone kind
I'm gonna make you mine

It's understood you wrap your
Voodoo right around my neck
You got some glitter on your
Kitty at the discotheque

I'll put my loving in your oven
Not a head to check
The last I heard from you
You were screaming "Resurrect!"


CHORUS

 C5         Eb5
Knock the world
              G5
Right of its feet and
