G          Em            Bm 
Clambering men i big bad boots 
    C                    G 
Dug up my den, dug up my roots 
        Em                 Bm 
Treated us like plasticine town 
     C                          G 
They built us up and knocked us down 
 
Em Bm C 
 
D               C 
From Meccano to Legoland 
D                     C 
Here they come with a brick in their hand 
D                     C 
Men with heads filled up with sand 
     D 
It's build 
 
It's build a house where we can stay 
Add a new bit everyday 
It's build a road for us to cross 
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots 
 
Whistling men in yellow vans 
They can and drew us diagrams 
Showed us how it all worked it out 
And wrote it down in case of doubt 
 
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick 
It's wall to wall and brick to brick 
They work so fast it makes you sick 
It's build 
 
It's build a house where we can stay 
Add a new bit everyday 
It's build a road for us to cross 
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots 
 
It's build 
 
Down with sticks and up with bricks 
In with boots and up with roots 
It's in with suits and new recruits 
It's build
