BmWere we the kinnock factor
GAm I talking private sector

GHe's gone, I'm no deserter
DPerhaps I'm hard, F#all the same
[Chorus]
GToday a Dpoet who can't play guitar
GTomorrow steve oDvett has injured his calf
BmNext year the world's greatest politician
EmYesterday the boy who once had a mission
AI don't wanna be a Gmprologue to histoDry

BmRemember ethnic cleansing in the highlands
GNo one says a thing in the middle of england

GI'm talking rubbish to cover up the cracks
DAn empty vessel who F#can't make contact
[Chorus]
GToday a Dpoet who can't play guitar
GTomorrow phil Dbennet's playing outside half
BmNext year the world's greatest politician
EmYesterday the boy who once had a mission
