Verse 1
Am
Naked on the toilet with
a toothbrush in his mouth,
When he suddenly acquired an
overwhelming sense of doubt.
Dm
Every single piece of baggage he'd
F
Dm
been holding on his back,
Am
Was beginning to dig dig dig in and
his back began began to crack.
And when he finally broke up,
he found that he'd been breaking down.
Little body, little soul,
little shrapnel on the ground
D
Am
Dm
So he started to examine
F
from the clumsy to the cute,
Am
From the fat, fat cat to the destitute
From the chat, fat cat to the mute
Verse 2

Oh earthly pleasure ring out

From the caverns of my soul
Verse 3
Am
Then suddenly he found
themselves in 1822
And he was in another body,
in a heavy sort of suit
G
Dm
He was surrounded but he'd started
making plans to make a run
Am
When they called to him,
son, cock your gun
And so he did as all the
others had already done
He put his finger on the trigger
and he gave 'em some
Dm
F
And though he don't like to admit it,
it was sensual and pure
Am
And he changed that day
though he can't be sure
Adim
If it's the sickness or the cure.
Am
Oh earthly

Verse 5
Am
So there he was in front of
her divine simplicity
And she was speaking Esperanto
and drinking ginger tea
F
As she inquired about the reason
Dm
for his visit here today
Am
Well he just said, no reason,
and I really shouldn't stay.
A
And so he thought that she would think
Am
that he was some kind of freak
A
And that he'd go back to the grind,
D
Am
D
and that he wouldn't last a week
F
she just sighed and added softly with a smile
Am
Sit down dear child,
what's on your mind?
And so he frantically described to her,
the kingdom at her feet
As she continued with her manicure
Em
Am
and poured another tea
F
As he recounted tales of misery
and suffering and pain
Am
She was yawning at the ceiling,
so we had to up his game
The only thing your children cherish
is to move up the ranks
Em
Am
Lucifer is in our courts,
Em
Beelzebub is in our banks
Am
C
And if you don't cooperate with us,
Am
we'll hang you 'til you're dead
F
Am
So she granted him a wish,
and let him write it on her head
C
Am
And when he read it back to her,

So let this earthly pleasure sing
