GF#BmDAE
[Verse 1]
AGF#
Something must have happened over Manhattan
BmDAE
Who can expound all the children this time
GF#
Could they ever, could they ever
BmDAE
Expect such a Frankenstein, Frankenstein
AG
I remember when you were jammin'
F#
You worked at 'em and any of them
BmDAE
There was never nothing you would ever understand
GF#
But you know who was there to be your master
BmD
Making his demands and plans
AE
As though he's making his friends
[Verse 2]
AG
And when those plans they don't mix your style
F#
You get a feeling of your own ordeal
BmD
That's when he starts calling you, wow
AE
Bud, you just don't know what to do
AG
So now you come around here
F#
And you're trying to take over the town
BmD
Just because of back home, baby
AE
Oh, he puts you down
GF#
Oh, baby,
BmD
How he puts you down
AE
I know they put you down
[Chorus]
AE
So now, you're off starting 'round here
AE
Here you ask and demand
AE
In a place where they don't expect nothing
AE
You're trying not to dirty your hands
GF#
When asking you as a person
BmDAE
Is it a crime, is it a crime
AGF#
For you to fall in love with Frankenstein
BmD
Is it wrong, could it be wrong
AE
Wrong, baby, don't you want a friend
AG
Cause you're trying to be so selective
F#
You never realise the whole time
BmD
Who's the one you're loving
AE
Misunderstood like a Frankenstein
GF#
And down, down, down, just go just down
BmDAE
Like Frankenstein, like Frankenstein
[Chorus]
AE
So now you're telling me
AE
What every time you can get down home
AE
Well don't you know there's place, it is my home
AE
So where am I gonna go
GF#
You know, when you don't expect nothing
BmDAE
You know, when you're not alone, you know you're not alone
AGF#
Cause something must have happened over Manhattan
BmDAE
Who can expound all the children this time
AG
Could you ever, could you ever
F#BmDAE
Expect such a Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein
[Instrumental]
GF#BmDAE
[Chorus]
AE
And all this shoes are too big
AE
And house jacket's too small
AEAE
How you don't know Frankenstein, a Frankenstein
GF#
We're asking you as a person
BmDAE
Is it a crime, is it a crime
AGF#
For you to fall in love in with Frankenstein
BmD
Wrong, could it be wrong
AE
Baby, don't you want a friend
AGF#
Well, Frankenstein, oh, Frankenstein,
BmDAE
Frankenstein, Frankenstein
AGF#
Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein,
BmD
Frankenstein, Frankenstein
AE
Frankenstein
[Chorus]
AG
You're gonna get it, you're gonna get it
F#
You're gonna get it, from Frankenstein
BmD
You're gonna get it, you're gonna get it,
AE
You're gonna get from Frankenstein
A
That's what I'm gonna shout about
G
Gonna scream about it,
F#
I'm gonna shout about it, bitch about it, scream about it
BmDAE
Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein
AGF#
Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein
BmDAE
Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein,
[Outro]
I've gotta ask you one question
AGF#
Do you think that you could make it with Frankenstein?
