Verse 1:
      A                     C
There's an automatic teller machine in the emergency room
        D          A
There's a meter maid she arrives by broom
                   C
There's a bear in the air with a lullaby
        D            A
And a big brown coat to keep you warm at night
                  G
There's a money tree and the latter leans
        D
Up against the trunk but the steps are greased

Verse 2:
A                  C
There's a plastic man with a plastic knife
      D         A
In a rubber hand at a drastic price
                 C
Don't miss this show you will be amazed
         D           A
You're a shinin' star, a needle in the haze
                    G
There's a man upstairs with the fire below
           D
There's the elevator
N.C.
And away you go

Bridge:
     A     C   G  D
There's a smooth operator
     A      C  G  D
There's a famous governator
A     C    G  D
Everybody walks in L.A.
   A      C  G  D
On a backward escalator
    A     C   G  D
It's a soul terminator
   A     C   G  D
In a sea of alligators
  A       C   G  D
On each and every corner
     A       C   G  D
There's a broken hearted waiter
