Lyrics/Chords:

G
Spaceheads, you're all the same

You just live to fly again

     F  C   G
Your ra-age shows

 

Dead flies on the bumper tonight

So scared, your knuckles gone white

     F  C                        G
Your na-ame is the neighbourhood scum

         F  C                           G
Say your na-ame, it's the neighbourhood scum

 

My baby, born forty eight

Robbed a car and fled the state

     F  C                        G
Your na-ame is the neighbourhood scum

 

Hit the stars on the way tonight

Smashed the car when you jumped the lights

     F  C                        G
Your na-ame is the neighbourhood scum

         F  C                           G
Say your na-ame, it's the neighbourhood scum

 

Stole a bus and now you've gone too far

All these stops are to pick up a car

     F  C   G
Your ra-age shows

All these troubles are getting me down

Any more and I'd better leave town

     F  C                        G
Your na-ame is the neighbourhood scum

         F  C                           G
Say your na-ame, it's the neighbourhood scum
