              Intro G7 
 
Verse 1:
G 
Hair-raising shake, you're much too late 
 
You should have jumped a couple of cars before 
 
Now, if I may, I'll walk away 
 
I'm selling Silly Putty door-to-door 
 
And up on the shelf, it seems to help 
 
If I can keep a little bit of disease 
 
As it's feeding on me 
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
G 
You see it's bringing me to my knees 
            D7 D7/C# C G5 
As we all wilt 
 
Chorus 
 D7 D7/C# C G5 
Watch       ing you wilt 
 
Instrumental 
D7 D7/C# C G5   (x2) 
 
Verse 2:
G 
Come right away 
 
And help me bathe away the filthy feeling, frigid and cold 
 
Biting my nails to the fairy tales 
 
About the magic monkey's total control 
 
See, I got Indian Ken and his fleabag friends 
 
With their buckets full of elephant ears 
 
As he's breathing on me 
 
 
Pre-Chorus
G 
His breath is bringing me to my knees 
            D7 D7/C# C G5 
As we all wilt 
 
 
 D7 D7/C# C G5 
Watch       ing you wilt
