E A E
Hangin' out by the schoolyard gate

Lookin' up every dress I can

Suckin' wind through my upper plate

I'm a dirty old man (dirty old man, dirty old man)

Fillin' the front of my shirt with drool
I'm a dirty old man (dirty old man, dirty old man)

Nervously wiggling my toes in my boots
Communist literature in my hands

Recitation (over two repeats of verse chords)
[cackle] Hello, kiddies, here I am again on the ol' schoolyard! I
got *thrill pills* for all the little chickies, and I got *funny
cigarettes* for all you boys [sniff], and I got *dirty pictures* for
all of you together! Well, I guess I better go, I see the campus
cop's coming... I better split now. Remember Leon Trotsky! [cackle]
[repeat verses 1-3]
