C                        G
Sitting in the big black oven
Em                     F#
What a clever place to hide
        B7        C
With my eyes wide open
   Am                B7
My face is a flaming pie

C                 G
Bare-naked in the kitchen
    Em                F#
And everyone sleeping tight
    B7            C
The clock goes to seven
  Am                     B7
I dance but I don't know why

Em                  G
I'm standing in the schoolyard
C                         B7
Waiting for my teacher to come
    Am           Em
She looks gently downward
    Cdim7               B7
And picks me up in the sun

[Instrumental]
Em G C B7
Am Em Cdim7 B7

C           G
I'm chewing cloudflakes
Em          F#
I'm falling apart
B7          C
One with my mind tapes
Am         B7
One for my heart

C          G
I'm making mistakes
Em                F#
When I'm counting stars
B7           C
One when the light brakes
Am         B7
One in the dark

Em                  G
I'm standing in the shelter
C                        B7
Waiting for my mother to come
     Am        Em
She left me in winter
           Cdim7             B7
And she'll pick me up in the fall

[Instrumental]
C D G Em  x4

Cm           Em
The ocean is friendly
Em           F#
The ocean is mine
B7           C
Caught in my bathtub
      Am       B7
With a fishing line

C                             G
Little fishes swimming in the shallows
Em                       F#
Little fishes driving me mad
B7                 C
Two more fishes to swallow
       Am             B7
So they cannot eat me back
