The leaders that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
D7 G
But when they take their makeup off they look like Frankenstein
(chorus in between each verse)
The nurses that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But when you break a finger, they break the other nine
The donuts that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But one rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine
The toilets that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But when you go to flush them, they cut off your behind
The water that they give you, they say it's mighty fine
But when you take a sip of it, it tastes like turpentine
The lifeguards that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But when you say you're drowning, they say you're doing fine I Wish I Were a Little Bar of Soap

Titanic
G C G
Oh, they built the ship Titanic, to sail the ocean blue.
A7 D7
And they thought they had a ship that the water would never go through.
G G7 CG G
But the Good Lord raised his hand and said the ship would never land
D7 G G7
It was sad when the great ship went down.
Chorus:
C G
It was sad (so sad) it was sad (too bad)
D7
It was sad when the great ship went down (to the bottom of the....)
G G7 C
Husbands and wives, little children lost their lives
G D7 G
It was sad when the great ship went down.
G C G
Oh, they sailed in from England and were almost to the shore
A7 D7
When the rich refused to associate with the poor.
G G7 C G
So they put them down below, where they'd be the first to go.
D7 G G7
It was sad when the great ship went down.
- Chorus -
G C G
The ship was full of water and the sides about to burst,
A7 D7
When the captain shouted: "Women and children first!"
G G7 C G
Oh, the captain tried to wire but the lines were all on fire
D7 G G7
It was sad when the great ship went down
- Chorus -
G C G
Oh they swung the lifeboats out o'er the deep and raging sea
A7 D7
When the band struck up with Nearer My God to Thee
G G7 C G
Little children wept and cried as the waves swept o'er the side
D7 C G7
It was sad when the great ship went down.
- Chorus -
G C G
Lady Aster turned around as she watched her husband drown

It was sad when that great ship went down
- Chorus -
G C G
The moral of the story, as you can plainly see,
A7 D7
Is to wear a life preserver and never go out to sea.

G G7 C G
Husbands and wives, little children lost their lives
G D7 G
It was sad when the great ship went down.
G G7 C G
Ker-plunk, it sunk to the bottom of the sea
C D7 G
It was sad when the great ship went down
Lines I've never heard:
When the people on the ship were a long way from home,
With the people all around them didn't know their time had come.
But Death came ridin' by, sixteen hundred had to die.
It was sad when that great ship went down
The captain stood on deck with a tear drop in his eye
As the last boat went out, he waved them all goodbye
He knew he made a slip, so he went down with his ship
It was sad when the great ship went down
It was a night none would forget, even millionaires got wet! Ants Go Marching
