Vegematic
Steve Goodman

Capo 2

VERSE 1:

A minorAm
Fell asleep last night with the TV on
E MajorE     E7E7   A minorAm
Oh, what a dream I had
A minorAm
I dreamed I went and answered every single one
     E MajorE          E7E7
Of those late night mail order ads
  A minorAm            A minorAm   E MajorE   A minorAm
And four to six weeks later, much to my surprise
  A minorAm
The mailman came to my front door
    E MajorE     E7E7   A minorAm
And I couldn't believe my eyes

CHORUS 1:
          A minorAm
When he brought the Vegematic
    E MajorE   E7E7    A minorAm
And the Pocket Fisherman too
A minorAm
Illuminated illustrated history of life
E MajorE          E7E7
Boxcar Willie with a Ginzu knife
 A minorAm          A minorAm   E MajorE   A minorAm
A augmentedA bamboo steamer, and a Garden Weasel too
   A minorAm    C majorC   A minorAm         E MajorE    E7E7   A minorAm
And a tie-dyed, dayglo souvenir shirt from Six Flags Over Burbank

VERSE 2:

     A minorAm                          E MajorE E7E7
Well the doorbell rang all morning and all through the afternoon
 A minorAm
I shook with fright as it rang all night
    A minorAm      E MajorE   E7E7  A minorAm
To the light of the Master Card moon
     A minorAm
There was Parcel Post in the pantry
A minorAm       E MajorE E7E7
UPS in the hall
A minorAm C majorC    A minorAm       E MajorE       E7E7     A minorAm
C.O.D. to the ceiling, and I just couldn't pay for it all

CHORUS 2:

     A minorAm          E MajorE      E7E7    A minorAm
I got the egg scrambler, with a Seal-a-Meal carrying case
 A minorAm
A augmentedA set of presidential commemorative plates
A minorAm     E MajorE          E7E7
So I could eat my eggs off the President's face
 A minorAm          E MajorE       E7E7      A minorAm
A augmentedA Minute Mender, and a needle that'll knit or crochet
    A minorAm     C majorC       A minorAm
And an autographed photograph of Rin Tin Tin
  E MajorE     E7E7  A minorAm
At Six Flags Over Burbank

VERSE 3:

 A minorAm                         E MajorE E7E7
I remembered I was dreaming, so I gave a mighty cheer
   A minorAm     DmDm         E MajorE    E7E7    A minorAm
When I awoke, it was no joke, 'cause all that shit was here
   A minorAm               A minorAm            E MajorE E7E7
So if you fall asleep with the TV on, let me tell you what to do:
A minorAm        DmDm             E MajorE     E7E7    A minorAm
Rip the telephone out of the wall unless you want it to happen to you

CHORUS 3:
      A minorAm         E MajorE   E7E7    A minorAm
You get the Vegematic, and the Pocket Fisherman too
A minorAm     C majorC      A minorAm
Illuminated illustrated history of life
  E MajorE          E7E7
And Boxcar Willie with a Ginzu knife
 A minorAm          E MajorE     E7E7   A minorAm
A augmentedA bamboo steamer, and a smokeless ashtray too
    A minorAm   C majorC     A minorAm          E MajorE    E7E7   A augmentedA
And an all expenses paid weekend for three at Six Flags Over Burbank
