      e              D           A          G
An' I wanna move the town to the Clash City Rockers,
    B             A        B         e   
You need a little jump of electrical shockers
    e            D           A          G
You better leave town if you only wanna knock us;
B                  A               B          e
Nothing stands the pressure of the Clash City Rockers

Verse 2:
    e                 D             A    G
You see the rate they come down the escalator
    B             A          B      e
Now listen to the tube train accelerator
e            D            A             G
Then you realize that you got to have a purpose
        B              A             B         e
Or this place is gonna knock you out sooner or later

Chorus:
         C#m                           B
So don't complain about your useless employment
        A*             e     B e
Jack it in...forever tonight
             C#m                    B
Or shut your mouth, and pretend you enjoy it
         A*                     e  B e
Think of all...the money you've got

Verse 3:
      e          D       A         B
An' I wanna liquefy everybody gone dry
   B             A           B              e 
Or plug into the arrows that poke up in the sky
   e             D                A           G
Or burn down the suburbs with the half-closed eyes
B            A      B        e
You won't succeed unless you try
