Axilla
(alternate transcription)
Intro: A# C# D# }4x
A#
I dropped the buzzard in the sand and trudged off slowly toward the town,
I needed dinner and a place where I could throw my weight around,
G
I detected faint axilla scent that put me off my appetite,
C F
But mouflon warring where I went renewed in me a need to fight,
[Repeat intro]
A#
Then reveling in mirror mask I soon was lost in foggy ditch,
Without a feather gray or white to tickle that piano witch,
G
Fearing that I must expose my worm to holographic haze,
C F
My Clinometer error rose and spawned in her new mawkish ways,
[Repeat intro x2, 2nd time building up to bridge]
Bridge:
D# A# G# A#
I woke the witch with reverence reserved for serpents, snails and slugs
D# A# G# A#
I pulled the witch from out the ditch and turned to face the furry thugs
D# A# G# A#
The sheep they smiled with teeth agleem, the weapons in their hooves revolved
D# A# G# F
I detected a prostatic ream--I gulped and felt my loins dissolve!!!!!
F
Axilla! (x6)
[Repeat intro]
F
Axilla! (x8)
INTRO:

B-------6-------- Index finger

A---------------- listening to jimmy page, i should guess :-))

I droppped the buzzard in the sand and trudged off slowly toward the town
I needed dinner and a place where I could throw my weight around
