I look like a loser, coming from the gutter
             Em7      A7           Em7      A7
Want to be a writer, and be a keen reader
             Em7      A7           Em7      A7
Listen to my opera, now I'm a good listener
               Em7      A7          Em7      A7
Got to make my mind up, so go around later


Em7

             I'm a red rooster
            Em7    A7           Em7      A7
A real cold killer, a real live wire

Minor complications, turn to ultimatums
                   Em7   A7                   Em7      A7
At first I find it funny, but now it's just annoying
            Em7     A7                   Em7      A7
I dingalingaling her, but that's another story
              Em7 A7               Em7      A7
Sitting on my sofa, I'll go around later
