Like a heartbeat baby trying to wake up    
 C
But this machine can only swallow money
 F
you can't lay a patch by computer design
 AmC
Just a lot of stupid, stupid signs     

 FC
 Tell her    
 FCF
 Tell her she can kiss my ass, then laugh and say that you were only kidding.
 AmC
That way she'll know that it's really, really, really, really me, me.

Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab me.
 CF
Today I need something more sub - s(tub) - sub - substantial.
 C
A can of beans or black-eyed peas, some Nescafe and ice
 FAmC
A Candy bar, a fallen star, or a reading from Doctor Suess

 BmAm
 The cat in the hat came back, wrecked a lot of havoc on the way.
 BmAm
  Always had a smile and a reason to pretend,
 BmAm
But their world has flat backgrounds and little need to sleep, but to dream
 CEm
  The sidewinder sleeps on his back.

 DD/F#DD/F#G5C9G5Am
    Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
 DD/F#DD/F#G5C9G5Am
    Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
 DD/F#DD/F#G5C9G5Am
    I can always sleep standing up.  Call me when you try to wake her

Ohhhh.....

 DD/F#DD/F#G5C9G5Am
    Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
