Forgive me if I'm out of order
  B               A      B
this new "music" has no soul.
     B              A      B
It may be good for making money,
   B            A      B
(sadly that is not my goal).

I saw you in the magazine,

They must be living in a dream 
       B                A B
they couldn't be more wrong.

If we'd played this riff more punk,
                                      B
than may be we'd have had a million seller.

But this piper's tune is not for sale,
                                       B
(I'm glad to say I'm not that kind of fella).
 D
D.J.s, V.J.s, pimps and trollops,

   B                 A        B
Stand your ground behind the times
  B             A      B
and refuse to follow fashion
   B             A      B
Write your poetry with anger,
   B               A      B
(and then sing it with a passion).


  G           F#             E             A       B
Painted faces in a circus - images that spring to mind,
 G               F#              E                  A       B

                                   B
then be deemed the flavour of the week.
