Verse 2:

        I went into   a shop
        Bought a loaf of bread
        I sunk my teeth into it
        Thought I'd busted my head
        Oh, I dashed to the dentist
        Hey, hey, I got an awful pain, yeah
        This man looks in my mouth and screams
        This boy's insane

        Imagine my surprise
        Thought I'd left it at home, yeah
        There's a lump in my mouth of my
        Own tombstone

Instrumental break:

        (abbreviated verse: piano solo over first four lines; guitar solo
         from "Imagine my surprise" onward)

Verse 3:

        I went in to see   a movie
        Got the only empty seat
        I tried to stretch out in it
        Something blockin' my feet
        Finally the lights came up
        And I could clearly see
        A slab of engraved marble
        Just starin' up at me

        Imagine my surprise
        I thought I'd left it at home
        There's no doubt I'm sittin on my
        Em   Am   Em  [end cold]
        Own tombstone
