WHIP SMART - LIZ PHAIR
CAPO 1
E B E B
I'M GONNA TELL MY SON TO GROW UP
A F#m
PRETTY AS THE GRASS IS GREEN
B F#m A B
AND WHIP SMART AS THE ENGLISH CHANNEL'S WIDE (?)
(same as above)
AND I'M GONNA TELL MY SON TO KEEP HIS MONEY IN HIS MATTRESS
AND HIS WATCH ON ANY HAND BETWEEN HIS THIGHS
AND I'M GONNA LOCK MY SON UP IN A TOWER TIL
I WRITE MY WHOLE LIFE STORY ON THE BACK OF HIS BROWN EYES
CHORUS:
E A B
WHEN THEY DO THE DOUBLE DUTCH THAT'S THEM DANCING
(same as above)
I'M GONNA TELL MY SON TO JOIN A CIRCUS SO THE DEATH IS
CHEAP AND GAMES ARE JUST ANOTHER WAY OF LIFE
AND I'M GONNA TELL MY SON TO BE A PROPHET OF MISTAKES
BECAUSE FOR EVERY TRUTH THERE ARE HALF A MILLION LIES
AND I'M GONNA LOCK MY SON UP IN A TOWER TIL HE
LEARNS TO LET HIS HAIR DOWN FAR ENOUGH TO CLIMB OUTSIDE
CHORUS (BILLION TIMES)
Gene
