Verse 1
[E]Sharks follow my [Abm]trail, [Bm]and it won't be lo[Dm]ng
[A]They've fallen for the [C#m]oldest trick in the [D2]book
It never goes [Dm]wrong oh oh
[A]Mask and snorkel and a [E]bottle of ketchup
Oh those [F#m]desperate old shark fins start to [D]circle me in anger
Chorus
Oh be [A]clever not beautiful, oh be [E]clever not beautiful
If your [F#m]goal is plain survival well then be [D]clever [E]not beauti[A2]ful
Verse 2
[E]Poets lock up your [Abm]words, [Bm]your tongues are all [Dm]tied
[A]But let it read in [C#m]every history [D2]book
That the poets all [Dm]tried to
[A]Lull us with lilting, [E]songs of a struggle
To [F#m]mountain up an ocean that we were [D]something more than animals
Chorus
Be [A]clever not beautiful, be [E]clever not beautiful
If your [F#m]goal is plain survival well then be [D]clever [E]not beauti[C#m]ful
Bridge
Not like your [D]face, as you roam in the [F#m]garden
Not as the [C#m]earthworms gather be[D]neath your feet
You [F#m]give it all a[E]way for [D]free[E]
As we [F#m]sun our winter [E]bellies in your [D]spring
Instrumental
[E] [Abm] [Bm] [Dm]
[A] [C#m] [D2] [Dm]
Chorus
Ooh be [A]clever not beautiful, be [E]clever not beautiful
If your [F#m]goal is plain survival well then be [D]clever not beautiful
Oh be [A]clever not beautiful oh be [E]clever not beautiful
If your [F#m]goal is plain survival well then be [D]clever
[E]Not beauti[A]ful[Ab][F#m][E]
Be [D]clever [E]not beauti[A2]ful
