I look like a loser, coming from the gutter
             F#m7      B7           F#m7      B7
Want to be a writer, and be a keen reader
             F#m7      B7           F#m7      B7
Listen to my opera, now I'm a good listener
               F#m7      B7          F#m7      B7
Got to make my mind up, so go around later

             I'm a red rooster
            F#m7    B7           F#m7      B7

                   F#m7   B7                   F#m7      B7
At first I find it funny, but now it's just annoying
            F#m7     B7                   F#m7      B7
