verse 1:
F
I like to dress in brown
C Bb
When I go in to town
Am Bb C
It is a matter of good presentation
F
I hate to stand in line
C Bb
And waste my precious time
Am Bb C
Cause I was working hard when I was young
Bb F C
I walk through the city with ugly shoes
Bb F C/G
I laugh at the world when I watch the news
Bb F C
I once had the power to pick and choose
Am Bb
And this is what I chose to be like
Main Riff
verse 2:
I'm in the union
I love the union
They gave me money and prosperity
But now things cost too much
So I buy cheaper stuff
Made by some cheaper people somewhere else
Chorus 2:
I walk through the city with ugly shoes
I laugh at the world when I watch the news
I once had the power to pick and choose
And this is what I chose to be like
Chorus 3:
I yell at the kids with expensive shoes
I stand by my vows and beloved views
I once had the power to pick and choose
And this is what I chose to be like
Main Riff
verse 3:
I'm like you all in all
Bored and cynical
There's nothing I can do
It's much too late, now
I smoke a nice cigar
Keep driving in my car
Until the polar ice floods the streets
Chorus 4:
I walk through the city with ugly shoes
I laugh at the world when I watch the news
I once had the power to pick and choose
And this is what I chose to be like
Main riff
