    B5              A5      B5
Forgive me if I'm out of order
  B5               A5      B5
this new "music" has no soul.
     B5              A5      B5
It may be good for making money,
   B5            A5      B5
(sadly that is not my goal).


   G5           F#5           E5                   A5     B5
Integrity and honesty are words that you don't understand,
     G5                     F#5            E5              A5       B5
but you're the best - it says so in the penny dreadful in your hand.

   B5              A5   B5
I saw you in the magazine,
         B5              A5   B5
they're calling you messiah.
         B5          A5     B5
They must be living in a dream 
       B5                A5 B5
they couldn't be more wrong.

 A5      
If we'd played this riff more punk,
                                      B5
than may be we'd have had a million seller.
          A5
But this piper's tune is not for sale,
                                       B5
(I'm glad to say I'm not that kind of fella).
 D5
D.J.s, V.J.s, pimps and trollops,
                               B5      
never mind music - this is bollocks.


   B5              A5   B5

  G5        F#5       E5       A5    B5
Turn on, tune up, cash in, sell out.
  G5        F#5       E5       A5    B5
Turn on, tune up, cash in, sell out.


   B5                 A5        B5
Stand your ground behind the times
  B5             A5      B5
and refuse to follow fashion
   B5             A5      B5
Write your poetry with anger,
   B5               A5      B5
(and then sing it with a passion).


  G5           F#5             E5             A5       B5
Painted faces in a circus - images that spring to mind,
 G5               F#5              E5                  A5       B5
when I read my penny dreadful filled with pictures of your kind.

they couldn't be more wrong.


    A5
Commercial suicide's appealing after
                            B5
ten years on this losing streak.
             A5
'Cause I'd rather be called sour and bitter
                                   B5
then be deemed the flavour of the week.


B5              A5   B5
