Вступление
Improv on a G7#9 and end on a G7 and then go to a C
G Am Bb Am G
I'm not the brightest crayon in the box
G Am Bb Am G
Everyone says I'm dumber than a bag of rocks
C Bb C
I barely even know how to put on my own pants
F G C D Bb G
But I'm a genius in France (yeah), genius in France, genius in France
Hoom chaka laka
Hoom chaka laka

G Am Bb Am G
I may not be the sharpest hunk of cheese
G Am Bb Am G
I got a negative number on my SATs
C Bb C
I'm not good looking and I don't know how to dance
But nevertheless and in spite of the evidence I am still widely
considered to be
F G C D Bb G9
A genius in France, a genius in France, a genius in France
(enter your own sound effects)

But when the Mademoiselles see me, they all swoon and shriek
F G C D
They dig my mystique, they say I'm c'est magnifique
F G C C/B C/Bb C
When I'm in Par-ee, I'm the chic-est of the chic
F G C D
They love my body odor and my bad toupee
F G C D
They love my stripey shirt and my stupid beret
G C D
And when I'm sipping on a Perrier
G C D
In some cafe town in St. Tropez
G C D
It's hard to keep the fans at bay
G Bb G Bb G C7
They say, "Sign my poodle, s'il vous plait"

Poodle... poodle...
C Bb Gm G7

Folks in my hometown think I'm a fool
Got too much chlorine in my gene pool
G Am Bb C
A few peas short of a casserole
G Am Bb C D
A few buttons missing on my remote control
G Am Bb C
A few fries short of a happy meal
G Am Bb C Dm F G
I couldn't pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel

C Bb G F G
Instructions on the heel
C Bb C Bb
