Verse riff
Forty men in a paper boat
No plan to hand just tearing a hole
To get the water out
Got together on a phone-in show
Oh how we love that talk radio
No one else say's it like that
Here we are now a-singing songs
We all know where it all went wrong
We're going to put it right
Oh yeah
G# F#
One night up at silverlake
G# F#
John the taxi and Willy the brake
G# F#
Said all the things that needed said
Fm
We named and shamed
F# G#
And stuck it out on the web
F# G#
Sorted it at silverlake
Try some of these and turn down all the lights
You might find love unusually nice
More if you care for her
I went on the TV twice
Once for the money and once for advice
I tell it like it is
Come up and see us
G# F#
One night up at silverlake
G# F#
The place was jumping, people goin' ape
G# F#
All the paper and the news
Fm
Was waiting for us to say
F# G#
Let the oil trucks roll away
F# Fm
Won't forget us in a hurry
F# G#
All the boys down at silverlake
G# F#
One night up at silverlake
G# F#
John the taxi and Willy the brake
G# F#
Said all the things that needed said
Fm
We named and shamed
F# G#
One night at silverlake
One night up at silverlake
John the taxi and Willy the brake
Said all the things that needed said
We named and shamed
And stuck it out on the web
Sorted it at silverlake
One night up at silverlake
John the taxi and Willy the brake
Said all the things that needed said
We named and shamed
And stuck it out on the web
Sorted it at night at silverlake
