As soon as your born they make you feel small

By giving you nothing instead of it all

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Ami                     G      Ami
Then they expect you to pick a career

When you can't really function you're so full of fear

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
Ami                                G             Ami
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
Ami                                  G            Ami
But you're still f***ing peasants as far as I can see

There's room at the top they are telling you still

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
Ami                        G            Ami
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
