I can't pretend to be a great celebrity,
    C                     Am                 Dm    G
but still, I'm quite important in me way.

but all the same, I'm very proud to say
 
       C                    Em                   Am
I'm the girl that makes the thing that drills the hole
              Em                   F                  G

that oils the ring that takes the shank that moves the crank

on the thing-ummy-bob.

especially when you don't know what it's for.

C                   Em                     Am

that makes the engines roar.

    C                 G      C          G
I'm not what you would call a heroine at all,
  C                   Am          Dm   G
I don't suppose you'd even know me name.
   F                 D         C            A7
But though I'll never boast of my important post,
     D                 D7              G        G7
I'll strike a blow for freedom just the same
