[INTRO]
D A G G x2
[VERSE 1]
D A G
He's the wasp in the jam, he's the dad at the party
D A G
The trash in the beauty spot
D A G
He's the cloud in the sky, he's the fly in the ointment
D A G
The nail in the parking lot
G D A G
Let's give the man a hug then put him out to grass
G D A G
Feel sorry for the bug, the one that's up his ass

[VERSE 2]
D A G
He's the frog in the throat, he's the spot on the forehead
D A G
The crack in the window pane
D A G
He's the leak in the boat, he's the weed in the rosebed

The truck in the outside lane
G D A G
So get the kids along and fill 'em up with love
G D A G
Then sing a happy song yeah, really piss him off
G D A G
Cos everything is wrong and nothing's good enough

It won't be good enough
