You’re a white
collar boy and you gave into the law
Give
in to the [D/F#]pressure the
cops gonna g
etcha
You were a thieving dog at work until they caught your little paw
Your
wage won'[D/F#]t stretch, t[Dm/F]o picking up
checks
A
custodial sentence you
narrowly avoided
Community service you
had to go al
ong with
You’r
e banging the rocks at the old city docks
Poor
boy poor

You were chained to a girl that would kill you with a look
It?
?s a nice w[D/F#]ay to die she
’s so easy
on the eye
She said let’s get away, but you played it by the book
You?
?re a warde[D/F#]n’s pet, s[Dm/F]he’s a scr
eaming suffragette
?
?We ain’t in prison,
we’ll just finish up and go home’
She said, ‘Not for m
e, I’ve go
t plans for later on’
So she
belted the sarge and she jumped on a barge
You f
ell, you
fell you
fell you

You f
ell, you
fell you
fell you
fell
White collar, got
dirt in your pants
You got
egg in your hair
You got
spit in your chin
White collar,
scared to be
bored
Blue Collar, she'
s openin
g doors
White collar
boy, on the
run from the
law

She said ‘You ain’t ugly, you can kiss me if you like’
Go a
head and ki[D/F#]ss her, you d
on’t know
what you’re missing
You said ‘Baby, you’re special, but there’s something not quite right.’
She?
?s a Venus [D/F#]in flares an[Dm/F]d you wanna
split hairs!
?
?I am innocent, you are
a rocket.
Things were ok till yo

Leave m
