Food in abundance, beggars and banks,
                      E                    A
God in His Heaven and His priests in tanks.
                     D               A

Greed and corruption of every kind.

[Chorus]
D         A         E      A
They all know it's a cryin' shame
      D     A       E         A
To turn your head, look away again.
D       A           E      A
They all know it's a cryin' shame
   D              A     E        A
To turn your head, look away again.

T.V., poverty and the big bad dream.
                   D                  A
Sex in the cinema, fear in the school,

Censorship committees, they rule/we're cool.

[Chorus]
D           A                   E      A
Don't they all know it's a cryin' shame
    D         A       E     A
To turn your heads, look away again.
D             A          E       A
Don't they all know it's a cryin' shame

To turn your heads, look away again.

Composure in the little pill, courage in the beer, Mummy and daddy and the life of fear.
                      D       A
Human relationships cast away,
