Verse 1

A
Going up
First floor
Knitwear, knappery, beachwear,
sportswear, corsetry, millinery,
ladies' underwear, thank you
Going up
D
We are the lift girls
A
in a big department store
We kindly take the patrons
D
going up from floor to floor
Don't wonder if we're weary
G
of standing up all day
A
Cos when the doors fly open,
D
it's our job to say
Second floor
A
Glassware, ironware,
hardware, brushware,
crockery, cutlery
El Fendango tea room
Orange juice, lemonade, milkshakes,
arsenic, rat poison
Thank you
Going up
D
We are the Lyft girls,
A
we're careful how we dress
I like my job, but I'd very much rather
D
have been an airhouse desk
But as I was always a -sick
G
and I couldn't pass the test
A
I stand here pushing buttons
D
and the Lyft does all the rest
Third floor
A
Cosmetics, perfumes and colognes,
ribbons, handbags
Shopping baskets, belts, buttons,
ten and twenty dresses, thank you
Uh, excuse me,

can I find glasses on this floor?
A
Glass, where are we?
Hardware, brush, where?
Crockery, cutlery, railfinding,
ethereum, second floor.
Oh,
um, now you're perhaps going down.
G
D
Gang up!
Ah, sister, Marlene,
A
what a hell of a job this is.
The boss won't even give us time to go,
D
neverz iz.
And while we're on the job,
G
we can't even have a smoke.
A
Ah, I'm so tired, man,
I'd give anything for a
D
coke fourth floor.
Kiddies where, juvenile,
children and subteens,
A
teens, twin teens, middle age,
old age, senility,
dotage and decomposition,
funeral shrouds, going up,
D
and don't lean on the buttons
A
please don't lean on the doors,
the car's full up now
D

Going down.
Now finally I had a minute or two
A
to sit down on my seat.
I'm gonna sue this company
D
for giving me flat feet.
A
D
Now I've got fallen arches
G
and lum bago in my back.
A
I sup pose it won't be long now
D
before I get the sack
F#
Now if the lift gets stuck
for an hour or two,
Bm
you really can't blame me
E
If I don't appear to sympathise
with your anxiety
A
D
Cos I've seen enough of these four walls
G
to last for many a day
A
And when the clock's at half past five,
I'm overjoyed to say,
going home
D
