Who can expound all the children this time

I remember when you were jammin'

You worked at 'em and any of them

As though he's making his friends

Verse 2:
A             G
And when those plans they don't mix your style

You get a feeling of your own ordeal
Bm          D
That's when he starts calling you, wow
A                E
Bud, you just don't know what to do
A           G
So now you come around here

And you're trying to take over the town

A      G     F#
For you to fall in love with Frankenstein
Bm      D
Is it wrong, could it be wrong
A           E
Wrong, baby, don't you want a friend
A              G
Cause you're trying to be so selective
F#
You never realise the whole time
Bm          D
Who's the one you're loving
A          E
Misunderstood like a Frankenstein
G          F#
And down, down, down, just go just down
Bm      D   A      E
Like Frankenstein, like Frankenstein


Chorus:
A           E
So now you're telling me
A                E
What every time you can get down home
A                      E
Well don't you know there's place, it is my home
A          E
So where am I gonna go
G                F#
You know, when you don't expect nothing
Bm            D   A          E
You know, when you're not alone, you know you're not alone
A             G    F#
Cause something must have happened over Manhattan
Bm    D   A        E
Who can expound all the children this time
A       G
Could you ever, could you ever

You're gonna get it, from Frankenstein
       Bm          D
You're gonna get it, you're gonna get it,
       A        E
You're gonna get from Frankenstein

That's what I'm gonna shout about

Gonna scream about it,
