🎸 Verse 1:
Em D C
Gather round and listen and I'll tell you how's it's done

How they manage to make idiots out of everyone

Take a human population with their hunger and their pain
Em C D
And the weaknesses that cripple them again and again
Em D Em D
🎸 Verse 2:
Em D C
Invent a splendid party where their dreams can be won
Em C D
And with bright flashing lights, the heartaches are gone
Em D C
With sex and with money and with everything for free
Em C D
Then show tantalising glimpses every night on TV
🎸 Pre-Chorus 1:
F#m G
Watch the dirty hands that laboured hard for you

Give a car and video and a little bit to spare

And go on promising that more could all be theirs

🎸 Verse 3:
Em D C
The producer swears silently it cannot be heard
Em C D
And the camera crew are muttering those four letter words
Em D C
Another take is needed so the show can go on
Em C C
With a patronising smile and a popular song
🎸 Pre-Chorus 2:
F#m G
They tell you when to laugh, they tell you when to cheer
F#m G
So the audience at home will get the right idea
F#m G
They watch like children left out of a playground gang
Bm C#
Conforming their lives the way they hope will get them in

Em D C
It seems to me sometimes there's only two ways to choose
Em C D
In this whirlpool made of a thousands years
Em D C
Either live in these ghettos and know your place
Em C D
Or you trample over everyone in the human race
🎸 Pre-Chorus 3:
F#m G
I wish we could find another way to go
F#m G
Without the Ghost of Cain in everything we do

The bitterness in failure and the dirt in success
Bm C#
This is the choice, this is the choice
