VERSES

(E) Whatever happened to childhood 

We're all (A) scared of the kids in our neighbourhood

They're not (C#m) small, charming and harmless

They're a (F#) violent bunch of (A) bastard little (E) shits


  (E)        (A)

CHORUS

B/A: x01202

We're all (Asus2) wondering how we (B/A) ended up so (F#m) scared

You spent (Asus2) ten long years (B/A)teaching your kids not to (F#m) care

And that there's no such thing as society (F#m) anyway

And all the (A) rich folks act (E) suprised when their (A) sense of community (E) dies

You just (A) close your eyes to the (E) other side of (F#m) all the things that she did (A)

(B) Thatcher fucked the kids (E)


BRIDGE

(C#m) You've got a generation raised on the (G#) wellfare state

(A) Enjoyed it's benefits and (E) did just great

But as (F#m) soon as they were settled as the (C#m) richest of the rich

They (A) kicked away the ladder told the rest of us that life's a (B) bitch
