Verse 1
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Smokin’ Joe,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Has got a full time job,
[Am] [Em] [Bm] [Am] [Em] [Bm]
At the counter-culture counter counting others’ calories,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
When he’s alone,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Back to his knees,
[Am] [Em] [Bm] [Am] [Em] [Bm]
I bet that’s when he eats when everyone’s asleep in the house,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
In the house.
Chorus
[C] [G] [Am]
Why’s he got to hit everything twice?
[C] [G] [Am] [Em] [Bm]
Who’s the mechanic here?
Interlude
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Let me say
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Do you get fit;
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
You’ve got something,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Verse 2
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Everyone’s daft but he’d have laughed,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
If you told him he’d be seen between the wheel and seat,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Of any social apparatus,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
He’d be floored to notice pants and coats,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Fit his metabolism,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
So, he,
[Am] [Em] [Bm]
Still smokes.
Chorus
[C] [G] [Am]
Why’s he got to hit everything twice?
[C] [G] [Am] [Asus2] [Am]
Who’s the mechanic here?
[C] [G] [Am]
Why’s he looking in my direction?
[C] [G] [Am] [Em] [Bm]
Who’s the mechanic here?
