The Button Pusher Cifras

[Chorus]
D
I am the man, the well fed man
A                         D
In charge of the terrible knob
D
The most pleasing thing about it
D
It's almost a permanent job
         G
When the atom war is over
        D                 A
And the world is split in three
        D
A consolation I've got, well, maybe it's not
            A               D
There'll be nobody left but me
 
[Verse]
D
I sit at my desk in Washington
   A                    D
In charge of this great machine
D
More vicious than Adolf Hitler
D
More deadly than strychnine
           D
And in the evening after a tiring day
        D             A
Just to give myself a laugh
  D
I hit the button a playful belt
       A              D
And I listen for the blast
 
[Chorus]
D
I am the man, the well fed man
A                         D
In charge of the terrible knob
D
The most pleasing thing about it
D
It's almost a permanent job
         G
When the atom war is over
        D                 A
And the world is split in three
        D
A consolation I've got, well, maybe it's not
            A               D
There'll be nobody left but me
 
[Verse]
D
If Brezhnev starts his nonsense
    A              D
And makes a nasty smell
D
With a wink and a nod from Nixon
D
I'll blast them all to hell
    G
And as for that fellow Castro
    D              A
Him with the sugar cane
           D
He needn't hide behind his whiskers
     A                D
I'll get him just the same
 
[Chorus]
D
I am the man, the well fed man
A                         D
In charge of the terrible knob
D
The most pleasing thing about it
D
It's almost a permanent job
         G
When the atom war is over
        D                 A
And the world is split in three
        D
A consolation I've got, well, maybe it's not
            A               D
There'll be nobody left but me
 
[Verse]
D
If me wife denies my conjucular rights
      A                 D
Or me breakfast milk is sour
D
From eight to nine in the morning
D
You're in for a nervous hour
    G
The button being so terribly close
     D                 A
It's really a dreadful joke
  D
A bump of my ass as I go past
          A            D
And we'll all go up in smoke
 
[Chorus]
D
I am the man, the well fed man
A                         D
In charge of the terrible knob
D
The most pleasing thing about it
D
It's almost a permanent job
         G
When the atom war is over
        D                 A
And the world is split in three
        D
A consolation I've got, well, maybe it's not
            A               D
There'll be nobody left but me
 
[Verse]
D
Now I'm thinking of joining the army
    A                  D
The army that bans the bomb
D
We'll take up a large collection
D
And I'll donate my thumb
    G
For without it I am helpless
    D                 A
And that's the way to be
    D
You don't have to kill the whole bloody lot
   A               D
To make the people free
 
[Chorus]
D
I am the man, the well fed man
A                         D
In charge of the terrible knob
D
The most pleasing thing about it
D
It's almost a permanent job
         G
When the atom war is over
        D                 A
And the world is split in three
        D
A consolation I've got, well, maybe it's not
            A               D
There'll be nobody left but me
