The Little Rabbits: Karen (Forster/Mc Lennon)

Cover of the great Go-Betweens` song, in a less punky way…

The whole song is built under a pattern:

Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D G A


Intro: Em D Em D Em + arpeggio: G------------0----------------------------------
D-------2--------2--------2----0------------------
A---2-----------------2-------------0------
E--------------------------------------------

Em D….
I just want some affection
I just want some affection
I don`t want no hoochie-coochie mama
No back door woman
No queen street sex thing
I want a tiger on bended knees
With all the kindness of the japanese

I just want some affection
Wish I heard voices
G A
Wish I was a telephone

Em D
Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah yeah
G A Em D + Arpeggio
I said yeah, oh Karen

Em D
I know this girl,
This very special girl
And she works in a library yeah
Standing there, behind the counter
Willing to help
With all the problems
That I encounter

Helps me find Hemingway
Helps me find Genet
Helps me find Brecht
Helps me find Chandler
Helps me find James Joyce
She always makes the right choice

She`s no queen
She`s no angel
Just a peasant from the village
She`s my god, she`s my god
She`s my G.O.D., she`s my god, yeah, yeah,
She`s my G.O.O.D, yeah
She`s my god now
Oh she`s my god now, yeah

Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah yeah

Oh yeah, oh Karen

For this part still Em D but in arpeggio

And she stands there, in the library
Like a nun in a church does...
Like a nun in a church does...
She stands there all alone...

Em D
`cos she gives me something that
I just can`t get now anywhere else
`cos the girls that I see walking around
Yeah the ones I see walking on the street
Are so damn damn damn damn damn damn cold
`cos they must have Eskimo blood in their veins
And the one that I want
I just can`t see
I can`t see her there
I can`t see anywhere
All right...

Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah
Karen yeah yeah
Karen
Karen Karen Karen
Karen Karen Karen
