 How forgetful Iʼm becoming now you fixed your business straight
  
      G#                            C#7               G#

 You were a faggy little leather boy with a smaller piece of stick
            G#
 You were a lashing smashing hunk of a man,

 your sweat shined sweet and strong

 Youʼre the man who squats behind the man
            A#m          F#             G#
 who works            the soft machine
 Cm         A#m                 C#             G#
 Come now, gentlemen, your love  is all I crave

 Oh Rosie dear, donʼcha think itʼs queer. So stop me if you please
     C#7               G#
 The babyʼs dead, my lady said.
         A#m                        F#               G#

 Be wary of these my gentle friends of all the skin you breed

 To have that tasty habit,
      A#m            F#             G#
 itʼs not       the hands    that bleed
