♫ Verse 1:
N.C
You think he'd realize
N.C
But he's infatuated with ideas
                     Em#5/C
Of possessions and far-flung social policy
            D6sus4/G
His daddy works on the Council
              Dm/A
His missus loves the silver spoon
Dm/A
Swore she'd never kiss a Tory
Dm/A
But this boy was too good to lose
C5          G5
And I'll listen carefully
G5           A5
With ears pressed to the floor
A5            F5
As you make your way downstairs
F5
You haven't got far to fall
Em#5/C
Now it's red, now it's dead
Em#5/C          D6sus4/G
Now it's everything she needed
D6sus4/G
Now it's four open doors
              Dm/A
Pillows pressed under your knees
Dm/A
Now it's a sad, sappy sucker
Dm/A
To ensure her the ending

If he's still infatuated with the truth
Em#5/C         D6sus4/G
