Вступление
[Verse 1]
D G
Amanda's parents were enlightened:
A
Patriarchy wasn't right, and
G A D A
They agreed to hyphenate their names.
G
And being it was in the Sixties,
D G D
Peter's folks were thinking freely;
A D
They decided they would do the same.
[Verse 2]
D G
When Peter and Amanda'd grown up,
A
They had joined the same food co-op,
G A
Meeting for three hours twice a month to order flour.
G
When they shared a case of olives,
D G D
They discovered they were in love,
A D
So they married, and had a little boy.
D A Bm A D
They called him Tom O'Malley-Finkel-Harris-Smith.
[Verse 3]
D G
When little Tom became a man,
A
He asked Sally for her hand.
G A
And they announced a wedding in the woods at sunrise.
G
Wearing not a thing but flowers,
D G D
Each had written their own vow, hers
A
Spoke of earth and his of water,
A D
Pretty soon they had a daughter.
D A Bm A
They called her Jane Purcelli-Hall-
D
Gonzales-Grant-O'Malley-Finkel-Harris-Smith.
[Verse 4]
D G
Bill loved Jane when he first met her
A
Down at the recycling center,
G A
Trading in their empty bottles for good karma.
G
One day over whole-grain bread
D G D
When Bill proposed to her, Jane said:
A
"Funny you should ask today, be-
D
Cause I'm gonna have a baby."
D A Bm A
They called him Bob Muzursky-Fontanella-Macintyre-
A
Rockefeller-Beebe-Maxwell-Oldenburg-Dupont-Purcelli-
A D
Hall-Gonzales-Grant-O'Malley-Finkel-Harris-Smith.
[Bridge]
Bm
Soon the world was in big trouble;
A
Each six minutes, names were doubled.
G A
Driver's licenses were getting hard to carry.
Em
Introductions took too long,
D G D
and people got their own names wrong,
A
No-one could tell who was famous;
A
Babies were abandoned nameless.
[Verse 5]
D G D
By law, names were now confined
A
To less than ten megabytes,
G A
And Bob and Sue knew they soon would be in deep trouble
G
They did not know what to do,
D G D
Cause Sue, you see, was due in June
A
There was no way they could stall it -
A
Oh, what were they gonna call it?
A D
They called him John.... Smith.
