It's a good old-fashioned landslide
G#m
Killing with your hands tied

In the homemade road, set sail
Babe, we read it in The Mail, no hope now
F#
And it's a total fucking whitewash
G#m
The people that we might squash
B
And move from home soil, set sail
F#
For wherever the fuck got oil this time
And if it's not a fucking war crime
G#m
It's a total waste of your time
And getting so much worse
B
Get real, kid, your country's been at war since birth now
F# G#m
And if it's not a fucking outrage, what's it all about then?
Now, it's one on one
B
Great Britain's gonna tell you where it all went wrong and then carry on
[Chorus]

Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting as well, what you tell 'em
G#m
Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting as well, what you tell 'em
G#m
Great Britain won't stand for felons
