Capo at 2   C                            Am

           Oooh la la la la la la la la bop bop  bop (twice)

 

C                      Am

     I look at a news cast being broadcast and

    C                                          Am

try to connect with the events in front of my eyes 

C                         Am

   But I can't see any further than the bills on the table 

        C                      Am           C                Am    

or my kids first Halloween disguise   ooooh        

 

Then I drive into town And go to the Hudson Valley Mall

And look at the youth in their White snake T shirts

Baby one world or another Would almost seem right

F            C             F             C

I'd like to see Peace on earth for my brother But I'm just a

 

CHORUS

C     Am             C     Am  C     Am              C

Ooooooh  Big man on paper      ooooh     Big man on paper

C                            Am           

Oooh la la la la la la la la bop bop  bop (twice)

 

I look at a magazine designed for the successful woman

And look for one designed for the unsuccessful man

But I can't see it anywhere on the newsstands

Maybe next week  Maybe next week

So I hit the arcade and then get back in the car

And drive drive drive down that empty highway again

Surrounded by food you don't worry about starvation
