As soon as you're born they make you feel small  
   C                     G          Am  
By giving you no time instead of it all

     C                  G                         Am

 Am                    G                            Am

     C                  G                         Am  
Then they expect you to pick a career  
Am              G                        Am  
When you can't really function you're so full of fear

        C               G                        Am  
And you think you're so clever and classless and free  
Am                       G                        Am  
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see

     C                          G            Am  
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill  
Am              G                        Am
