[Cm] I met this folk [F] who looked like a gawk
[Bb] I soon found out [Eb] that he was not
He [Cm] was a genuine camp [D] from Transylvania
He [G] said marry me, that's where I'll take you
[Cm] To a ruined castle [F] on top of a cliff
Where [Bb] the air's so cold it [Eb] would freeze your tits
[Cm] And there he taught [D] me how to fly
[G] Two lovers together in a purple sky
And we [Cm] had bats for dinner [F] and bats for tea
[Bb] Bats for him [Eb] and bats for me
[Cm] A big fat rat [D] for sun we roast
[G] For breakfast we had bats on toast
[Cm] And when the cooking [F] became a toil
[Bb] We'd just top them up [Eb] and eat them raw
[Cm] Or open a window [D] facing south
[G] And let them fly straight in our mouths
[Cm] Bats for dinner, [F] bats for tea
[Bb] Bats for dinner, [Eb] bats for tea
[Cm] Bats for dinner, [D] bats for tea, [G] bats for tea
[Cm] Bats [F] for dinner, [Bb] bats [Eb] for tea
[C] Bats for dinner, [D] bats for tea, bats [G] for tea
[C] Neighbours [F] didn't [Bbm] like us much, they seemed to bear [Eb] some sort of a [Cm] grudge.
Attacked [G] the castle [D] with flaming torches, [Gm] burned the stables and stole the portions.
[Cm] Then the locals there cut [F] a miserable top, [Bb] stuck a wooden stake through [Eb] my boyfriend's heart.
[Cm] I escape but [D] I'm alone again [G] in a one-room flat in Sidonan.
And there's [Cm] no bats in inner, [F] no bats for teeth, [Bb] no bats from the caves [Eb] or the belfry.
[C] It's peas and cabbage [D] or sun-dried raps [G] or ripped from lanky beans on toast.
[Cm] And when the cooking [F] becomes a chore, [Bb] I'll just chop them up [Eb] and eat them all.
[Cm] And think about [D] things used to be, [G] when there was just my count and me.
There's [Cm] no fairy-tale [F] castles in the sky, but [Bb] the room's so cold [Eb] it would make you cry.
[C] And still sometime [D] at night I'm lying [G] over London's dark grey sky.
[Cm] And think of him [F] and another world, [Bb] and hope is waiting [Eb] for his girl.
[Cm] One day united [D] we will be, [G] together forever for eternity.
And there'll [Cm] be bats for dinner [F] and bats for teeth, [Bb] bats for him [Eb] and bats for me.
[C] A big fat rat [D] for Sunday most, [G] for breakfast we'll have bats on toast.
[Cm] And when the cooking [F] becomes a chore, we'll [Bb] just chop them up [Eb] and eat them all.
[Cm] Or open a window [D] facing south [G] and let them fly straight in our mouths.
[Cm] Bats for dinner, [F] bats for teeth.
[Bb] A big [Eb] fat rat
[Cm] [D] for Sunday most, [G] for breakfast we'll have bats on toast.
[Cm] Bats for dinner, [F]
[Bb] [Eb] bats for teeth.
[C] Some [D] peace for [G] the side.
