Verse 1
Now I get (A minor) to conduct one.
(E flat major) Cheers (C minor) Whistle
(E flat major) The name of this tune is
(C minor) The (E flat major) name of this tune is Pedro's
Dowry. (C minor) (D minor) (C minor)
(D minor) Let me tell you the (E minor) story here. (A minor)
(E minor) This was also written as (F major) a ballet,
but we just (E minor) don't have the budget
for that sort of thing. (A minor)
(E flat major) Here's the plot.
A woman with oceanfront property
waits for (G major) someone named (C sharp major) Pedro
in (E flat major) a skiff, a (F sharp major) form of (E flat major) boat.
She will launder his burlap shirt
in the splendid sunset.
He will (F minor) (F major) play an in (A minor) expensive (E flat major) gui tar.
She will (F minor) make him
(E flat major) a stimulating drink.
And while he (E minor) drinks it,
(F major) she will put on some (F minor) more lipstick. (E flat major)
Later, they'll have a cheap little fuck
and accidentally knock over an ashtray.
In the confusion,
she might have misplaced her necklace.
Within (D minor) moments,
Merle has (E flat major) cleaned (A minor) the rug. up. (D minor) (A minor)
(E flat major)
Now mix it good, Davey. (A minor)
(D minor) (C minor) (A minor) (D minor) (C minor) (D minor)
