The Mole from the Ministry
The Dukes of Stratosphear, from the album "25 o'Clock"
[Verse 1]
G Bm
If you think there's something wrong,
F Am
Holes appearing on your lawn,
Eb Gm
Don't you blame the man next door,
A D
It's not him.
G Bm
Flowers walk from place to place,
F Am
Dark spot moves around your face,
Eb Gm
Objects vanish without trace,
A D
It's not you.
[Chorus]
B F#
I'm the mole from the Ministry,
A C#sus4 C#
And you'll all bow down to me.
B F#
I'm the mole in your potting shed,
A C#sus4 C#
I'm the bad thoughts inside your head.
Ab C# D7
And you won't catch me-e...
(Spoken: Fish and visitors smell after three days.)
[Verse 2]
G Bm
If you think there's something strange,
F Am
Garden starts to rearrange,
Eb Gm
From perfect lawn to mountain range,
A D
It's not you.
[Chorus]
B F#
I'm the mole from the Ministry,
A C#sus4 C#
And you'll all bow down to me.
B F#
I'm the mole in your potting shed,
A C#sus4 C#
I'm the bad thoughts inside your head.
Ab C# D7
And you won't catch me-e...
[Instrumental]
Bb Dm Ab Cm F# Bbm C F
[Chorus]
B F#
I'm the mole from the Ministry,
(Backing vocals: Working underground!)
A C#sus4 C#
And you'll all bow down to me.
(BV: Moving facts and figures all around!)
B F#
I'm the mole in your potting shed,
(BV: Undermine your world)
A C#sus4 C#
I'm the bad thoughts inside your head.
Ab C#
And you shouldn't think me, No!
Ab C# D7
And you shouldn't think me-e...
