[Intro] G```/C`G`  (x4)
GUnemployment’s rising in the CChigley end of Gtown
It’s spreading like pneumonia
Doesn’t Clook like going Gdown
There’s trouble at the fire station Csomeone’s had the Gsack
And the lads are going to launch a scheme to get Crid of Captain GFlack
 G```/C`G`  (x2)
Tell PC McGarry to Cget himself a Gmate
And arm themselves with CS gas
They’re Cgonna be out Glate
We’ve had Cant conformism since C196G6
And now subversion’s in the air in the Cshape of flying Gbricks
G```/C`G`  (x2)
Someone get a message through to DCaptain GSnort
That they’d better start assembling the Dboys from the Gfort
And keep Mrs Honeyman Dright out of Gsight
‘Cos there’s going to be a riot down in DTrumpton toGnight
G```/C`G`  (x4)
All this aristocracy has Creally got to Gstop
We can overthrow the surgery and Ckidnap Dr GMopp
And Chippy Minton’s Socialists could Cstorm the Market GSquare
And make plans to assassinate our Cautocratic GMayor
G```/C`G`  (x2)
Windy Militant leads his Basque-like Ccorn grinders to Gwar
With windmill sails and bombs with nails they Csmash the town hall Gdoor
But Snorty and his boys arrive with Cone big erstwhile Gcrew
Whereupon they bring about a Cmilitary Gcoup
Someone get a message through to DCaptain GSnort
That they’d better start assembling the Dboys from the Gfort
And keep Mrs Honeyman Dright out of Gsight
‘Cos there’s going to be a riot down in DTrumpton toGnightG  C  G
