It's G#all going A#up but the G#wages
And D#murdered reG7/Bporters
And G#talk of hard Bdimborders
Sky-Cm7bound as a D#7/A#heavenly G#choir
Or the Cm7stock price in Gaug/BBoeing
TheA# screams of theG7 dying
Or the Fm7skies over G#Yemen last night

Or thG#e level oBdimf blame
PCm7ointed to A#anything G#else
And D#preachy G7/Bmusicians
And G#those stuck in Bdimprison
With Cm7scarcely A#enough for a G#blunt
Or the Cm7pressure of A#blood
That new G#hotel in the Bdimhood
With an G#oligarch's Fmname on the D#front

And Cm7maybeD#7/A# it's tG#ime
It's allD# goG7/Bing up but the G#wagBdimes
And Cm7maybeD#7/A# it's tG#ime
It's all Cm7goingG7/B up with the A#bump in the Bdimheating bills
D#Even though theA# city's on G#fire
It's allD# goG7/Bing up but the G#wagBdimes
And Cm7maybeD#7/A# it's tG#ime
