SheA swings a string of pearls on the corner
The E street lights reflect the light in the water
The D string it snaps and the pearls go sailing
And they E splash and bounce and roll cross the wet street
As she A bends to chase the pearls a car swings round the corner
She E darts from the eyes of the panic-struck driver
Who's D racing to the delivery room
'cause E in the back seat his wife is busting out of her womb
A-Asus4-A
And A the sack breaks and out come the siamese twins
Who grow E up to become the first president
With two D heads
Are better than E one
He A puts his heads in his hands, says I got to put my heads together
E I can become the best president ever
And D not just president
Fend for E yourself
2x A-D-A
ASigns his name, takes the blame for all of the names with no E shame
In their beliefs they D adjourn and they leave
And in walks a man with E a broom and a knife and blood on his hands
And he A sweeps everything D under the rug
And goes E home to his kids and gives them a hug
But his D wife was not there, she had just left a letter
That E said youd be much better off without me
A-Asus4-A
A-Ami7-A
Now his A wife took the train to her ex-lovers funeral
Who E died in the bathroom, hit his head on a urinal
When D they got together, the knowledge was carnal
And the E widow was at the funeral, and they had quite a catfight
And they A fell into the hole D where the casket was resting
And the E preacher just left in the middle of the service
cause D death was one thing, but women made him nervous
And he E ran to his car and he drove round the corner
2x A-D-A
Then A something in the street caught the light in his eye
He pulled E over, reached down, and picked up a pearl from the D gutter
And he didn't know what to think
And E he brought it home and washed it in the sink
And A he gave the pearl to Sister Mary Theresa
Who E could not accept it so she gave it to Lisa,
A D young prostitute who was missing a pearl
On the E necklace that broke late last night
A-D-A
