D Bm
Scod: There's a girl,

We see each other every day,
D Bm
But I'm too shy,
C A Bm
And I can't even bring myself to say,
Em
Gatesy: "Hello, how are you today?
C
Lovely weather, by the way,
A
If I was with you, I'd be happy to pay!"
Gatesy: ... Oh for dinner, you know..oh shit!
D Bm
Scod: She's so cute,
C A
She's got a little button head.
D Bm
And I try to be cool,
C A Bm
But I just cannot seem to follow through.
Em
Gatesy: I just can't find a way to,
C
Let her know that I'll be true,
A A
So I know what I must do...
A D
Tripod: I'm gonna win the Rock Eisteddfod,
E A
That's how I'm gonna win her hand.
A D
I'm gonna win the Rock Eisteddfod,

And I'm a thirty-eight-year-old man.
A D
When I've won the Rock Eisteddfod,
E A
She won't leave me on the shelf.

I'm gonna win the Rock Eisteddfod,

Win the Rock Eisteddfod by myself,
F# E A
With no-one else,

On stage by myself.

Scod: My dramatic concept,

Will be a post-apocalyptic nightmare.

Made of cardboard boxes,
C A
And foil taped to my stack hat.

Tripod: She'll be impressed!
Em
Tripod: And my costume will be the best,
C
When the curtain rises, I'll be dressed,

In fluoro bike shorts and a fur vest.

I'm gonna win the Rock Eisteddfod,

That's how I'm gonna win her hand.

I'm gonna win the Rock Eisteddfod,

Win the Rock Eisteddfod by myself.
C G C G
Y & S: And as for music, I'll only choose it,
F# Bm F# Bm
If it's got a serious environmental message.
C G
Gatesy: I'll start with "Hungry... like the wolf",
D A
Tripod: And then, "It's Raining... Men".
D Bm
Scod: I hope it works,
C A
I hope she falls in love with me.
D Bm
My backup plan,
C A Bm
Is to leave these rookie amateurs behind.
Em
And I'll really blow her mind,
C
Tripod: And I'll build my Jazz Ballet rep,
A
I'll go the logical next step...
A D
I'm gonna win the Eurovision,
E A
Be a star and make her see.

Singing in a foreign language,

Yon: (Operatic) Maybe then she'll understand me.
A D
Tripod: When I've won the Eurovision,
E A
She won't leave me on the shelf.

I'm gonna win the Eurovision,

Then I finally won't be by myself.
F# E A
Row boats by myself,
F# E A
See-saws by myself,
F# E A AAAAA
Eating two ice-creams by myself...
