G Em Billy Liar's got his hands in his pockets A Em Staring over at his neighbor's, knickers down. A Em A D He's got his knickers down. G Em So the summer is eternity for you? A Em Sleeping in until your father's shaking you down A Em A He's shaking you down. G And the mailroom shift gets a real short shrift F#m Em As you dole out the packages, no-one seems to want you around A Em A All skullking a round. CHORUS D Bm D Bm Let your legs loll on the lino D F#m Em G A 'Til your sinews spoil D Bm D Bm Will you stay here for a while, dear, D F#m Em G 'Til the radio plays something familiar? A Plays something familiar.

As he drifts to sleep with a moan and a weep He is decked by a Japanese geisha with a garland of pearls How she twists and twirls!
