Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Oh  the drones on the corner don't look her in the eye
 When she comes out to play
And  three times now at the Club Chi-Chi they've turned her away
Last  week she was the belle of the ball but another week passes
It's  time to cast off crutches, scars and pebble glasses
She's  got everything a girl might need, she's a tribal  animal, yes indeed
 But she hasn't  got a bone through her nose,  through her nose
Hasn't  got a bone through her nose
 She hasn't  got a bone through her nose,  through her nose
 She hasn't  got a bone through her nose
 Hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her nose
 She hasn't got a bone through her nose
 Oh she gets her suits from a personal friend, Coco the clown
 She got dustman's jacket, inside out, it's a party gown
 If it's buffoons, she's got buffoons, if it's tat she got tat
 She got hoochie coochie Gucci and a pom-pom hat
 Well, her ma writes cook books, she wrote one once, and it sold one or two
 Her pa's in the city, he's so witty, he calls it the zoo
 Her boyfriend plays in Scritti Politti, Aunt Sally's brown bread
 In a few more years she can marry some fool and knock it on the head
