(Intro)
[B] [F#/B] [F#] [/F]
[B]Do[C] [F#]
[B]Wa[F#/B]h[F#] [/F]
[B]Oh[F#/Bb] [C#] [F#]
[B]Ha[F#/Bb]nging about down the market street
[F#]I spent a lot of time on my feet
[B]Wh[F#/Bb]en I saw some passing yabbos
[B]We[C#] di[F#]d chance to speak
I knew how to sing
y' know an
They knew how to pose
An' one of them had a Les Paul
Heart attack machine
[B]Al[E]l [B]the young punks
[E]Laugh your life
[B/Eb]Cos t[B/Eb]here [C#m]ain't much to cry for
[B]Al[E]l [B]the young cunts
[F#]Live it now
[C#m]Cos [B]there ain't much to die for
Everybody wants to bum
A ride on the rock 'n' roller coaster
And we went out
Got our name in small print on the poster
Of course we got a manger
Though he ain't the mafia
A contract is a contract
When they get 'em out on yer
[A]You gotta drag yourself to work
Drag yourself to sleep
[A]You're dead from the neck up
By the middle of the week

Face front you got the future shining
Like a piece of gold
But I swear as we get closer
It look more like a lump of coal
But it's better than some factory
Now that's no place to waste your youth
I worked there for a week once
I luckily got the boot
