Lyrics

[Theme 1]
Gb
Stranded
     E                  Gb
In a life in which your struggle
      A             B            Db
For acceptance is a never-ending chore
  Gb
Upbraided
         E                 Gb
For your actions, past and present
      A           B           Db
And rewarded for ideas of the future's bright open door
    Gb
The henchman is the human analogue
       E              Gb
Of the suffering multitudes
         A
Who like good dogs,
        B                Db
sit and lick for their reward

[Theme 2]
   Db   A      E
So what good advice
     Db A       E
Have I  got for you?
     Db    A           E
To insure against your likely metamorphosis
  D5      E    Gb
Into this reprobate?

[Theme 3]
Gb5
Don't be a henchman
                     A E
Stand on your laurels
Gb
Do what no one else does
    A                  E             Gb
And praise the good of other men for good man's sake

[Theme 4]
         A        E           B        Gb
And when everyone else in the world follows your lead
  D5                       E        B
Although a cold day in hell it will surely be
         G5             D5           A        E    Gb
That’s when the entire  world shall live in harmony
