I look like a loser, coming from the gutter
             D#m7      G#7           D#m7      G#7
Want to be a writer, and be a keen reader
             D#m7      G#7           D#m7      G#7
Listen to my opera, now I'm a good listener
               D#m7      G#7          D#m7      G#7
Got to make my mind up, so go around later

Hey, hey, hey!

D#m7  G#7                D#m7      G#7
             I'm a red rooster
            D#m7    G#7           D#m7      G#7
A real cold killer, a real live wire

                   D#m7   G#7                   D#m7      G#7
At first I find it funny, but now it's just annoying
            D#m7     G#7                   D#m7      G#7
I dingalingaling her, but that's another story
              D#m7 G#7               D#m7      G#7
