            ...POLITICAL SCIENCE... by Randy Newman
-----------------------................

*from 'Sail Away' (1972)*


*CAPO 3rd FRET*

(Original Key: Eb)


Verse 1:
C                   Caug
 No one likes us, I don't know why.
   E7                      A7
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try.
    Fmaj7                Fm
And all around, even our old friends put us down,
      C                    G7#5     G13
Let's drop the big one and see what happens.

Verse 2:
   C                    Caug
We give them money, but are they grateful?
E7                     A7
 No, they're spiteful, and they're hateful.
     Fmaj7                Fm
They don't respect us, so let's surprise them;
      C                 G7#5  G13
We'll drop the big one; pulve-rize them.

Verse 3:
C                Caug
 Asia's crowded, Europe's too old,
E7                         A7
 Africa is far too hot and Canada's too cold.
    Fmaj7         Fm
And South America stole our name,
      C                             G7#5           G13
Let's drop the big one; there'll be no one left to blame us.

Bridge 1:
F              C
 We'll save Australia;
F                           C
 Don't want to hurt no kangaroo.
F                             C
 We'll build an all-American amusement park there;
G7
 They got surfing too.

Verse 3:
C                   Caug
 Boom! goes London, boom! Paree,
E7                           A7
 More room for you, and more room for me.
    Fmaj7           Fm
And every city, the whole world 'round;
     C                A7
Will just be another American town.

        D7                             G7
Oh, how peaceful it will be; we'll set everybody free,
              E7                              A7
You'll wear a Japanese kimono babe, it'll be Italian shoes for me.

Coda:
         F          C
They all hate us anyhow,
         D        F       C
So let's drop the big one now.
      D        F       C
Let's drop the big one now.
