Em 
   Pass me that lovely little gun 
C 
   My dear, my darling one 
Am 
   The cleaners are coming, one by one 
G            D 
   You don't even want to let them start 

Ponte: Em  C  Am  G  D 

Verso 2: 
Em 
   They are knocking now upon your door 
C 
   They measure the room, they know the score 
Am 
   They're mopping up the butcher's floor 
G                 D 
   Of your broken little hearts 


Em C Am G D Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children
Verso 3: Em Forgive us now for what we've done C It started out as a bit of fun Am Here, take these before we run away G D The keys to the gulag Refrão 2: Em C7+ Oooo children G D Em Lift up your voice, lift up your voice C7+ Children G D Em C Am G D Rejoice, rejoice Ponte: Em C Am G D Verso 4: Here comes Frank and poor old Jim They're gathering round with all my friends We're older now, the light is dim And you are only just beginning
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children
Verso 5: We have the answer to all your fears It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear It's round about, it's somewhere here Lost amongst our winnings
Oooo children Lift up your voice, lift up your voice Children Rejoice, rejoice
Verso 6: The cleaners have done their job on you They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove They've hosed you down, you're good as new They're lining up to inspect you
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children
Verso 7: Poor old Jim's white as a ghost He's found the answer that was lost We're all weeping now, weeping because There ain't nothing we can do to protect you
Oooo children Lift up your voice, lift up your voice Children Rejoice, rejoice
Verso 8: Hey little train! We are all jumping on The train that goes to the Kingdom We're happy, Ma, we're having fun And the train ain't even left the station Verso 9: Hey little train! Wait for me! I once was blind but now I see Have you left a seat for me? Is that such a stretch of the imagination? Verso 10: Hey little train! Wait for me! I was held in chains but now I'm free I'm hanging in there, don't you see In this process of elimination Verso 11: Hey little train! We are all jumping on The train that goes to the Kingdom We're happy, Ma, we're having fun It's beyond my wildest expectation Verso 12: Hey little train! We are all jumping on The train that goes to the Kingdom We're happy, Ma, we're having fun And the train ain't even left the station
