Capo on 1st
F5
They used dogs on me
C5
They used blindfolds
Bb5 F5
They embarrassed me in the nude
F5 C5
They gave shocks to me with electrodes
Bb5 F5
They deprived me of my food
Bb5 F5
They paraded me round the prison
Bb5 A5
Chained up to other men
Bb5
And with every task,
F5 D5
One question they asked
Bb5 C5
Over and over and over again, they said...
Bb5 C5
"Aren't you the suicide bomber
Bb5 F5 C5
Who blew up the bus last year?"
Bb5 C5
I say, "No," they say, "Yes,"
F5 D5
I say, "You're not thinking it through,"
Bb5 C5 C5
But they went off and thought up some new things to doooooo
So they soaked me with cold water
And they left me there overnight
They put outlandish costumes upon me
And took photographs of my plight
They accused me of brutal behaviour
Whilst they kicked me in the balls
And with every task,
One question they asked
Echoing off of the cold prison walls, they said...
"Aren't you the suicide bomber
Who blew up the bus last year?"
I said, "No," they punched me,
I said, "Think logically,"
And they said, "You think logically!"
And I said, "What?"
(Interlude: F5 , C5 , Bb5 , F. F5 , C5 , Bb5 , F.)
Bb5 F5
Psychological torture
Bb5 A5
Has cleared things right up for me
Bb5
There's one thing I know,
F5 D5
When they let me go,
Bb5 C5
I will be the man that they want me to be
Bb5 C5
Yes, I'll be the suicide bomber
Bb5 F5 C5
I'll blow up a bus one day
Bb5 C5
And so will my son
F5 D5
And his son after that
Bb5 C5
And then some poor new guy
F5 D5
Will sit where I sat
Bb5 C5 F5 D5
And he will be forced to wear poo for a hat
F5 C5 F5
And so on and so ever forth,
F5
Amen
