Tonight there is a

For a perfume called “De

Dm7 
There’s been a revo

lution
F 
In women’s under
Em7 
wear
 
Am 
Now there’s a purchase to smoothe every frown
E7 
Trucks packed with catalogues yawn into town
Am 
Billboards and flat screens announce all is well
 
The  
E7 
peak of our history  
Bb 
united,

All tattooed, oiled and

Paradise is

Fmaj7 
Do they fuck as well as

Fmaj7 
Well, you only need to  
Em7 
ask
Dm7 
Ah, such a lot of  
Em7 
fucking
F 
More than ever in the  
Em7 
past
 
Am 
Cut to a famine, a drought or a war
 
Need a  
E7 
break in the fun so the wine can be poured
 
The  
Am 
ghost of last Christmas now plays William Tell on the  
E7 
head of your firstborn
Bb 
But you should still be

Novelty is

nothing’s ever

VERSE 3
F 
Here on the bypass, the loose bottom rung
 
Where  
E7 
flopsongs are written, where dayjobs are done
 
The  
F 
non-sovereign nations, in thousands, in ones
 
No  
E7 
land and no laws, from their black-spotted lungs
 
They  
F 
roar out to curse you and spit in your face
 
They are  
E7 
not being ironic; I think we should make
 
A  
F 
benefit concert, a swell carousel
 
Where the  
E7 
stars dry-hump livestock,  
Bb 
and you can all  
Asus4 
be
 
Amused as
