     G                                                     D
When I was walking down the street, a billboard caught my eye
                                                          G
The advertisement written there would make you laugh and cry

The sign was torn and tattered from the storm the night before
                G              D              G
And as I gazed upon it, well, this is what I saw.

Brush your teeth with Lifebuoy soap and watch the suds go by
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
     G                                            D
When I recovered from the shock, I went along my way
                                                     G
I'd gone no further than a block, when there to my dismay
                                                    C
Another billboard caught my eye, just like the one before
                G          D              G
