G Jehosaphat the mongrel cat G C Jumped off the roof today C G Some say he fell but I could tell D7 G He did himself away G His eyes weren't bright like they were the night G C We played checkers on the train C G God Bless his soul he was a tootsie roll D7 G But he's a dead cat just the same Chorus: C G We are living in the future C G I'll tell you how I know C G I read it in the paper D7 G Fifteen years ago C G We're all driving rocket ships C G And talking with our minds C G And wearing turquoise jewelry D7 G And standing in soup lines D7 G We are standing in soup lines G Jake the barber's lonely daughter G C Went down to her daddy's shop C G She plugged herself to a barber pole D7 G And took a little off the top G Pressure on the left. Pressure on the right G C Pressure in the middle of the hole C G I'm goin' to Maine on a forty foot crane D7 G I'm gonna use it for a fishin' pole Repeat Chorus: G Old Sarah Brown sells tickets down G C At the all night picture show C G Where they grind out sex and they rate it with an "X" D7 G Just to make a young man's pants grow G No tops no bottoms just hands and feet G C Screaming the posters out on the street C G Strangling the curious and the weak D7 G We give them what they wanna see D7 G Yeah we give 'em what they wanna see - O
