Lotteryland Richard Thompson
[G]That's the place I used t[D]o work w[G]hen I was a [D]wild, young [C]turk
It's [G]now the Museum of Indus[C]try, [Em]schoolkids get [D]in for [Em]free
[G]Brickworks-smell of rotten e[D]ggs, r[G]ubber works p[D]oured out the d[C]regs
[G]Now it smells of Dettol and [C]pee, [Em]Lotteryland's the [D]place to [Em]be
[Am]Where the steelmill [G]used to [C]stand [Em]there's a park in [D]Lottery[Em]land
[G]Be a pram-pusher on p[F#m]arole, [Em]go windsurfing [D]on the [Em]dole
[G]They can put you right to s[D]leep, b[G]etter than Brookside o[D]r The S[C]treet
It's [G]lucky numbers, one, two [C]three, [Em]lotteryland's the [D]place to [Em]be
We don't care who runs the shop, left wing, right wing, curse the lot
A million quid talks sense to me, lotteryland's the place to be
Now gone is dirt and gone is strife and gone is struggle and gone is life
"Shove it, mate, I'm busy see" Lotteryland's the place to be
Now we triple lock the doors, streets are full of thieves and whores
In a padded cell eternity, Lotteryland's the place to be
Lotteryland's the place to be
Lotteryland's the place to be
