N.C.


N.C.You see in the back, of the cynical mind
N.C.The dream of a girl about thirteen
N.C.Off with her clothes and into a bed,
N.C.Where she tickles his fancy all night long

N.C.His wife's attending an orchid show  D    D      C        B          A            G              A                B

She squealed for a week to get him to go
N.C.But back in the bed his teenage Queen

Is rocking and rolling and acting obscene

Baby! Baby!

Baby! Baby!

And he Cloves it! He loves itDm! It curls up his toes!
She Embites his fat neck, FAnd Git Flights up his nose, EmBut
EmHe cannot be fooled, COld DmCity Hall Fred,
CShe's B♭nasty, she's Cnasty, She D9digs it in E9bed!

Cmaj7Do it a-CgaEmin, and Dm7do it some mE♭ore!
That Cmaj7does it, by Em6golly,  E♭    Dmit's nasty Am7for sure!

Nasty-nasty-nasty! Nasty-nasty-nasty!

Only thirteen, and she knows how to nasty

She's a Gdirty young Dmmind. F  Cor-ruEmpt-ed, Dmcor-rodC-ed
Well she's Gthir-teen toDm-day, F  And I Emhear she gDmets Cload-ed

If she were my daughter I'd

What would you do, Daddy?

If she were my daughter I'd

What would you do, Daddy?

If she were my daughter I'd

What would you do, Daddy?

B♭Smother my Adaughter A♭in G7chocolate syrup,
And C7strap her F7on again, B♭   Oh C♯dim ba-byF7!
B♭Smother that Agirl iA♭7n   G7chocolate syrup,
And C7strap her on again!F7
She's a B♭Teenage Baby, and she B♭7turns me on,
I'd like to E♭make Her do a nasty
On the F♯7White House Lawn!
Going to B♭smother that Adaugh-ter A♭in G7chocolate syrup,
C7And boogie till the F7cows come B♭home!

N.C.Time to go home, Madge is on the phone
N.C.Gotta meet the Gurneys And a dozen gray attorneys
N.C.TV dinner by the pool I'm so glad I finished school

CLife B♭is such A♭a  ball
F♯I run Dthe world Cfrom Ci-ty Am9Hall
