  Two Little Hitlers (from the album *Armed Forces*)

  

  

  A                 E

  Why are we racing to be so old?

  A                             E

  I'm up late pacing the floor I won't be told

  A                          E             D

  You have your reservations I'm bought and sold

  D

  I'll face the music I'll face the facts

  E

  Even when we walk in polka dots and chequer slacks

  A                    E

  Bowing and squawking Running after titbits

  A                     E7

  Bobbing and squinting Just like a nitwit

  

  (CHORUS)

  D

  Two little Hitlers will fight it out until

  E                                      A

  One little Hitler does the other one's will

    D       E            D           E

  I will    return     I will    not burn

  

  

  Down in the basement

  A                       E

  I need my head examined I need my eyes excited

  A                          E7

  I'd like to join the party But I was not invited

  A                       E7

  You make a member of me I'll be delighted

  D

  I wouldn't cry for lost souls, you might drown

  E

  Dirty words for dirty minds Written in a toilet town

  A                   E7

  Dial me a Valentine She's a smooth operator

  A                      E7

  It's all so calculated She's got a calculator

  A                              E7

  She's my soft touch typewriter And I'm the great dictator

  

  (Chorus)

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

                        A

  A simple game of self-respect

  E                          A

  You flick a switch and the world goes off

  E                     A

  Nobody jumps as you expect

  E                                   F#m           E

  I would have thought you would have had enough by now

  A                         E7

  You call selective dating For some effective mating

  A                                E7

  I thought I'd let you down, dear But you were just deflating

  A                           E7

  I knew right from the start We'd end up hating

  D 

  Pictures of the merchandise Plastered on the wall

  E

  We can look so long as we don't have to talk at all

  A                             E7

  You say you'll never know him He's an unnatural man

  A                             A

  He doesn't want your pleasure He wants as no one can

  A                             E7

  He wants to know the names of All those he's better than

  

  (Chorus)

    D      E

  I will return

    D        E

  I will not burn  . . . . .
