[Interlude]      E9 (I) fade out

Come here sister.....Papa's in the swing

He ain't too hip...about that new breed babe

He ain't no drag, Papa's got a brand new bag

Come here mama....and dig this crazy scene

He's not too fancy....but his line is pretty clean

He ain't no drag Papa's got a brand new bag

He's doing the Jerk.... He's doing the Fly

Don't play him cheap 'cause you know he ain't shy

He's doing the Monkey, the Mashed Potatoes,

Jump back Jack, See you later alligator

Come here sister , Papa's in the swing

He ain't too hip now ,but I can dig that new breed babe;

He ain't no drag He's got a brand new bag

Oh papa! He's doing the Jerk

Papa...he's doing the Jerk

He's doing the twist ... just like this,

He's doing the Fly ev'ry day and ev'ry night

[Chorus]

The thing's....like the Boomerang

[Interlude]

Hey....come on

Hey! Hey.....come on

Hey! Hey....he's put tight...out of sight...

Come on. Hey! Hey! (fade out)

Food For Thought Version

Bass Tab  =  Guitar Hero

In D with G break.

I don't need no "Pass the Peas"—"More Peas"

I don't need no "Pass the Peas"—"More Peas"

I don't need no "Pass the Peas"—"More Peas"

I don't need no "Pass the Peas"—"More Peas"

Gimme some horns!

More Peas:  in G, drops to F for the bass solo

Call out the bass solo and that kinda switches to F halfway thru.

More solos in F..

Jimmy, you can play in D? Etc.

Guitar solo in D.
