Intro: E - all the way
E
The mayor hides the crime rate
A
council woman hesitates
E A
Public gets irate but forget the vote date
E A
Weatherman complaining, predicted sun, it's raining
E A
Everyone's protesting, boyfriend keeps suggesting
F# B E
you're not like all of the rest
E A
Garbage ain't collected, women ain't protected
E A
Politicians using people, they've been abusing
E A
The mafia's getting bigger, like pollution in the river
F# B E
And you tell me that this is where it's at.
A
Woke up this moming with an ache in my head
A
Splashed on my clothes as I spilled out of bed
A
Opened the window to listen to the news
B
But all I heard was the Establishment's Blues.
E A
Gun sales are soaring, housewives find life boring
E A
Divorce the only answer smoking causes cancer
E A
This system's gonna fall soon, to an angry young tune
F# B E
And that's a concrete cold fact.
(same chords as above)
The pope digs population, freedom from taxation
Teeny Bops are up tight, drinking at a stop light
Miniskirt is flirting I can't stop so I'm hurting
Spinster sells her hopeless chest.
Adultery plays the kitchen bigot cops non-fiction
The little man gets shafted, sons and monies drafted
Living by a time piece, new war in the far east
Can you pass the Rorschach test?
A
It's a hassle is an educated guess.
B E
Well, frankly I couldn't care less.
