Verse 1A
There's a hole in our logic
GF
There's a hole in the sky
And one day just like magic
DmA
We're all going to die
'Cause we didn't turn the lights off
GF
And we didn't take the bus
Even though we know we should have
DmA
Oh, silly old us
Pre-ChorusA
Well we should have recycled
Dm
And saved our resources
While there's still someone else’s
A
Someone call the armed forces
And we'll blame it on terror
Dm
Also known as religion
But we shouldn't feel guilt
E
For protecting our children
ChorusF
Excuse me, sir
C
But is this what they call denial
G
Just to carry on regardless
Dm
We'll only do it for a while
F
We'll carry on straight down the line
C
Down the road to nowhere
G
Do you know where it is leading us
Dm
And do we even wanna go there
Verse 2A
I don't have the answers
GF
I don't know where we start
Start to pick up all the pieces
DmA
Of everything we've torn apart
Now, you'd think that we'd be grateful
GF
For the fact we've got a choice
Instead we throw it back at people
DmA
Who don't even have a voice
Pre-ChorusA
And the teachers always told us
Dm
Told us we should love thy neighbor
And my mother always told me
A
Told me I should vote New Labour
But I don't know who to trust
Dm
And I just find it all confusing
All as useless as each other
E
Past the point of being amusing
ChorusF
Excuse me, sir
C
But is this what they call denial
G
Just to carry on regardless
Dm
We'll only do it for a while
F
We'll carry on straight down the line
C
Down the road to nowhere
G
Do you know where it is leading us
Dm
And do we even wanna go there
