Am7       D7
Hey kids, shake it loose together
    G                                         G#dim
The spotlight's hitting something that's been known to change the weather
Am7                       D                      Em
    We'll kill the fatted calf tonight so stick around 
       Am                  Bm                    C
You're gonna hear electric music, solid walls of sound 
     G
Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet?
 Am7                               C
Ooh but they're so spaced out, B-B-Bennie and the Jets, 
G
Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful, 
    Am
Oh, Bennie she's really keen 
           C                D
She's got electric boots, a mohair suit, 
           Em               Em7
You know I read it in a magazine,

Am7       D7
Hey kids, plug into the faithless, 
G                                G#dim
Maybe they're blinded but Bennie makes them ageless. 
Am7            D                            Em
   We shall survive, let us take ourselves along, 
         Am                           Bm                                    C
Where we fight our parents out in the streets to find who's right and who's wrong 
     G
Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet?
Am7                                C
