Paroles de Bean counter - graham parker
Graham Parker
Pre>in answer to the question about the groove this song is based on here
Is a rough version. i'm not sure if it's right nor not. it's possibly i've made
It (the chorus especially) needlessly over-complicated. it's probably quite simple
For someone who can actually play a bit.
Intro:
Am / am / am / am / dus2 / dus2 / dus2 / a9
Am577555
Dsus2557755
A9 557555
Am / am / am / am / dus2 / dus2 / dus2 / a9
Civil is ation
Am / am / am / am / dus2 / dus2 / dus2 / a9
Has come a long way
D7
Out of the mud where chitinous bugs
Am / am / am / am / dus2 / dus2 / dus2 / a9
Eat each other all day
Am / am / am / am / dus2 / dus2 / dus2 / a9
Am / am / am / am / dus2 / dus2 / dus2 / a9
(and so on for all the verses)
Now we're in the clouds working overtime for our pay
Countin' the numbers and being the bugs that eat each other today
Sitting in an office in a publishing house
Or in a big company working a computer clicking a mouse
Pulling up your file checking your sales
Meeting those quotas and accommodating voters that's the holy grail
Chorus
Amcdd7dsus2 a9
Cos it's a bean counter and if that don't fill you with terr or
Am cd d7dsus2a9
Bean counter. takin' the human out of the human err or
In a glass tower uptown or downtown
She's workin' every hour runnin' through your contract writing your deficit down
She's downsizing everything including her brain
Snackin' on potato chips smackin' her lips lickin' her pencil again
Chorus repeat
From wall street to hong kong. chinee to chancery lane
You're being rubber stamped your style is being cramped. it all comes out the same
They're not being paid to think. that's not the idea
And they never run out of red ink, get that particularly clear
Chorus repeat
Snackin' on potato chips givin' you a scan
Deleting your account phasing you out in the trash can
Now if you don't meet projections. if there ain't enough zeroes involved
You'll get stamped rejections and then that problem is solved /pre>
