If we'd played this riff more punk,
                                                                                                     B  
than may be we'd have had a million seller.
                          A  
But this piper's tune is not for sale,
                                                                                                        B  
(I'm glad to say I'm not that kind of fella).
  D  
D.J.s, V.J.s, pimps and trollops,

and refuse to follow fashion
        B                                 A              B  
Write your poetry with anger,

     G                            F#                                 E                                 A                 B
