Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - A national disgrace

F

Well it's the middle of the night at the London shrine

Bb

Could have been the janitor, could have been divine.

F

Someone said the thermostat never did work

Bb                            Eb(Bb) / F(Bb)

Now we've got the temperature going berserk.


Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - The Queen is losing face.

Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - A national disgrace

Celebrities, statesmen, histories elite

They're dripping in the hallways, they're starting to secrete

They're pouring out the pores, they're shrinking on the spot.

Someone take a photograph

Get'em while they're hot.


Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - The president looks alarmed.

Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - A General's been disarmed.

They're feverish at GFleet Street, story of the year

'Get the facts, House of Wax Photo Souvenir'

'Shamefull' says the Times 'May be done by vandals?'

Panic on Wall-Street, put  your stock in candles.


C                                                                         G
 
I thought I heard a ghost say 'Had my hands in my pockets on the Judgement Day.

C                                                                         G
 
Nobody told me there's fire in the hole, had the world by the tail but I lost my soul.


Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - A rock and roll hotel

Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - They're blending very well.

Elvis and the Beatles have seen a better day.

Better off the burn out than to melt away.

Dylan may be fillin' the puddle they designed

Is it gonna take a miracle to make up his mind?


Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - Athletes on the floor.

Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - They're running out the door.

Bad boy McEnroe coudln't keep his cool

Now he's with the rest of 'em, wading in the pool.

'Howard Hughes, billionaire' says the written guide.

Pity that his assets have all been liquifired.


C                                                                         G
 
Celebrity status only got in the way -'Had my hands in my pockets on the Judgement Day'

C                                                                         G
 
You can't take it with you, there's fire in the hole - Had the world by the tail but I lost my soul.


Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - The Queen is losing face.

Meltdown at Madame Tussaud's - A national disgrace

Down in the dungeon, the Chamber of Horrors,

Look at all the criminals, soften to the cores.

They're mixing with the heads of state floating down the lane

Good, bad, there they go down the same drain.


Bb / Ebsus(Bb)   Eb(Bb)/F(Bb)    Bb/Eb(Bb)  Fsus(Bb)/F(Bb) 

Meltdown at Madame Tusaud's (repeat)
