Intro:

N.C.
You see there's this girl in dance
N.C.
And every time I see her
Something just comes over me



Verse 1:
      C
Well, you know what it's like
                                         F/C
When you wake up in the morning and it's hard
                 A
Standing up straight at attention
                         F/C
Like the changing of the guard
    C
Or how it is in a porno shop
          Am
When you put your quarter in the slot
           D
And you try to look cool
                                G
So nobody knows that you're hot
    C
You go to a club
                                  F/C
And you're high on some fine marijuana
          C
And the singer in the band
                                F
Copped all of her moves from Madonna
And you wanna
   C                                                      Am
Or late at night you're in home in bed all alone and it's cold out
             D
You put your hand where it's warm
                                  F/G  G
While you open up Miss January's fold out
      F
Well that's how it is
          G7       F
When she's around

Chorus:
        F7

N.C.
All right Mr. Vegas, the joke's over
N.C.
I got another one! This one's REALLY painful
Alright go but I'm warning you!
   C
Im thinking about the time in my life
                           F/C
When I first learned what crying was
   C
The first time I ever had to come face to face
          F/C
With what dying was
    C
The relatives gathered all in black
    Am
To mourn for my great aunt Juanita
      D
When who comes through the door to pay her respects
          G       G7
But our cousin Conchitta
    C
The tears in her eyes
                               F/C
Only made them look even more spanish
       C
As i watched her I could swear
                                F
I could feel the floor under me vanish
        C
So she goes to them all
                             Am
Then she fin'ly comes over to me
         D
And she kisses my cheek and I lower my eyes
        F/G     G
I can hardly believe what I see
      F                     G7                F
Cause I'm looking down the front of her gown
           F7
And I can't, no I can't
Gsus4
I can't keep it down!
        C
I can't keep it down
(Can't keep it down)
           F7
When that girl's around
(Can't keep it down)
         D7     Ab7            G7sus4  G7
I can't keep it under my control
        C7
I can't k-k-keep it down
(Keep it down)
          F7
No, no

D7               Ab       G7
