[Verse 1]
F# Great snakes, are we moving already? F F#
Good gravy, did you say it cost a penny or G#mtwo for you?
We're talking 'bout the bad starts
B My baby brother has already got a gas mask
F# 'Cause it's a good ol' fashion lFandF#slide
Killing with your hG#mands tied
In the homemade rope, set Bsail
Babe, we read it in the C#mail, no hope now
[Chorus]
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting, it's good what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen
[Verse 2]
F#Why does it seem a fever G#mdream for all, the Bcall you made to me?
You said I'll F#feel one day each year a worry
We shall remember the G#mdead
And we'll remember the Bdead so they know that we're C#sorry
But then carry F#on
[Chorus]
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting as well, what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting as well, what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
How F#could it be the money it's the vote that matters to me?
You say you're hungry, but you won't eat the caraway seeds
G#m Doesn't matter in the wreckage what should you say
C# Well I found myself a little peckish last Tuesday
F# This is what you signed up for, no questions
Reckon we could offer peace, damn the weapon's conG#mventions
Well it's on the table, but it's noC# game, can't you hear?
All our worries for fear, carry F#on
[Chorus]
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen

[Bridge]
F# It's a good ol' fashion landslide
Killing with your G#mhands tied
In the homemade rope, set Bsail
Babe, we read it in the mail, no hope now
F# And it's a total fucking whitewash
The people that we G#mmight squash
And move from home soil, set Bsail
For wherever the fuck got oil this F#time
And if it's not a fucking war crime
It's a total waste of G#myour time and getting so much worse
Get real, Bkid, your country's been at war since birth now
F# And if it's not a fucking outrage, what's it all aG#mbout then?
Now, it's one on one
BGreat Britain's gonna tell you where it all went wrong and then carry on
[Chorus]
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting as well, what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen
F# Great way to fool me again, hun
Great acting as well, what you tell 'em
G#m Great Britain won't stand for felons
B Great British bombs in the Yemen
