Verse 1
F#m
What a dreadful town!
What a vulgar place!
What an awful mistake
to have come here!
To be on display in that shameless way
for the crude, common,
lower -class scum here!
D
F#m
E#
How do they dare to treat us so?
Father dear, come play with me!
Dm
F#m
Come and see this toy of
B
What a snub at most
F#m
from our so -called host!
Did he think sending freaks
would be funny?
Could the fool have thought
that our pride was bought
by his filthy American money?
B
What a farce!
D
What an outright slap in the face!
Abm
It's not a disgrace!
D
I've got a mind to pack and go!
Never you mind the debts we owe!
Who would believe we've sunk
this low?
G
F#m
Father, please, come play with me!
B
Please tell the boy the answer's
F#m
C
Am

It hurts my head.

Please, let's not fight, dear.

I'm sure that no one intended a slight,
dear.
Don't you patronize me.
C
D
It's your fault we came here.
Csus2
C
We need the money.
That's all.
Cm
That's why things haven't been right,
dear.
C
Why doesn't it surprise me
D
that I get the blame here?
C
Gm
Let's leave tonight, dear.
G
C
Dm
If that would serve to ease
Gm
Bb
your troubled mind.
Gm

Am
Leave the hurt behind.
D
G
Father dear, come over here,
D
Eb
and look at what they gave to me.
Wind it up and father see,
Gm
G
C
look it plays a melody.
Gm
C
I need some air.
G
Raoul, please.
Please what?
Nothing, nothing, only, Raoul,
don't drink any more.
Father never plays with me,
doesn't he love me?
