Hey!

Verse 1:

G
Cars and girls are easy to come by in this day and age
Laughing, joking, drinking, smoking, 'til I've spent my wage
When I was young, people spoke of immorality
All the things they said were wrong are what I long to be

Chorus:

G
(Hey!) Over, under, sideways down
(Hey!) Backwards, forwards, square and round
(Hey!) Over, under, sideways down
(Hey!) Backwards, forwards, square and round

Cm Gm
When will it end
(when will it end)
Cm Gm
When will it end
(when will it end)

[repeat intro]

Verse 2:

I find comments about my looks irrelativity[?]
Think I'll go and have some fun 'cause it's all for free
I'm done searching for a reason to enjoy myself
Seems it's better done than argued with somebody else

[repeat chorus]

[repeat intro]

Coda [repeat to fade]:

G
(Hey!) Over, under, sideways down
(Hey!) Backwards, forwards, square and round
