Guitar chords with lyrics
Intro:
G Em C D
G Em C D
Well, here's a song I've written specifically for you
G Em C D
Who sit inside the audience and talk through all I do
G Em C D
I cannot understand it cause I'm pretty good, you see
G Em C G
So there must be something wrong with you, there's nothing wrong with me
Chorus:
G Em C D
You're a bloody rotten audience whilst I am very good
G Em C D
If brains were made of oak and ash then you'd have balsa wood
G Em C D
I'm ethnic and authentic and I'm really full of class
G Em C G
While you're ignorant, you're cultureless, you're philistines en masse
Verse 1:
G Em C D
I'm an artist and authority on music and what's more
G Em C D
I'm incredible informative on folksong and folklore
G Em C D
I'm a wonderful performer and so you all must be
G Em C G
So bloody thick and stupid not to like the like of me

G Em C D
You're a bloody rotten audience whilst I am very good
G Em C D
If brains were made of oak and ash then you'd have balsa wood
G Em C D

G Em C G
While you're ignorant, you're cultureless, you're philistines en masse
Verse 2:
G Em C D
I'm a folkie and that's obvious, you can tell it by me clothes
G Em C D
And when I sing traditional, I sing it through me nose
G Em C D
And if you insist on talking everytime I sing a song
G Em C G
I'll fix you with 'Bold Robin Hood', that's eighty verses long
Chorus:
G Em C D
You're a bloody rotten audience whilst I am very good
G Em C D

Verse 3:
G Em C D
And when I sing contemporary, me heart and soul is pure
G Em C D
I must be bloody brilliant, cause me writing's so obscure
G Em C D
My hero's Leonard Cohen, I dig him perfectly
G Em C G
But I must be so much better, because no-one here digs me
Chorus:
G Em C D
You're a bloody rotten audience whilst I am very good
G Em C D
If brains were made of oak and ash then you'd have balsa wood
G Em C D
I'm ethnic and authentic and I'm really full of class
G Em C G
While you're ignorant, you're cultureless, you're philistines en masse
Verse 4:
G Em C D
But now I'm going to leave you, cause I feel I'm wasting time
G Em C D
Couldn't possibly be wasting yours, so you must be wasting mine
G Em C D
And let me tell you now that I'm not out here for me health
G Em C G
So if you don't come and pull with me, I'll go and pull meself
Outro:
G Em C D
You're a bloody rotten audience whilst I am very good
G Em C D
If brains were made of oak and ash then you'd have balsa wood
G Em C D
I'm ethnic and authentic and I'm really full of class
G Em C G
But underneath it all I'm just a pain in the flipping arse Last updated:
