Tom: Em
Em A7sus2
He have a big red nose and a silver tooth
Cmaj7 Bm7
His hands are black and blue with lots of prison tattoos
Em A7sus2
He cries about his father when he's sniffing on glue
Cmaj7 Bm7
He's never had a steady job, and he has syphilis too
Em A7sus2
He wears his granny's jacket and a Burger King crown
Cmaj7 Bm7
He lives in a factory on the shit side of town
Em A7sus2
He likes to think that he can play the washtub bass
Cmaj7 Bm7
He carries cans of cider in a pillow case
[Chorus]
Em A7sus2
Hey mister, I want to know-ow
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
You got a chipped tooth, you live in Soho
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
Hey mister, I want to know-ow
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
You got a push bike and a broke nose
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
He smokes cigars and drinks in bars with elderly men
Cmaj7 Bm7
He'll tell you 'bout himself and then he'll tell you again
Em A7sus2
He moved to the city to make it big
Cmaj7 Bm7
But that only works for people who have talent or skill
Em A7sus2
He wears a woolly hat in June and never washes himself
Cmaj7 Bm7
He only calls his mother when he's looking for help
Em A7sus2
He values his opinion so he writes it on walls
Cmaj7 Bm7
He's always shouting shit at traffic when he's grabbing his balls
Em A7sus2
He won't wear socks or pants that fit
Cmaj7 Bm7
He liked a lot of people just before they were shit
Em A7sus2
He spent a month in Brooklyn, now he talks like a Yank
Cmaj7 Bm7
He likes to carry 'round a journal, but the pages are blank
[Chorus]
Em A7sus2
Hey mister, I want to know-ow
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
You got a chipped tooth, you live in Soho
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
Hey mister, I want to know-ow
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
You got a push bike and a broke nose
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
He wears Old Spice, he sleeps all day
Cmaj7 Bm7
He kinda raped a woman, and he quotes Tom Waits
Em A7sus2
His fingernails are filthy, but his moustache is styled
Cmaj7 Bm7
He's somewhere in his thirties, but he acts like a child
[Chorus]
Em A7sus2
Hey mister, I want to know-ow
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
You got a chipped tooth, you live in Soho
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
Hey mister, I want to know-ow
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
Em A7sus2
You got a push bike and a broke nose
Cmaj7 Bm7
Are you a hipster or a hobo?
