E G
I was lost just wandering round downtown
A
Many people were pushing me around
C D A A - G - F#m - E - D - E E
Hate spreads just like infection
E G
Those rats jumping on and off my back
A
Fat black rats holding me down
C D
I see rats in every direction
A A G F#m E D EE
No time to catch your breath
A A G F#m E D E E
Crazy people lost their heads
D D C# D C# D E E D D C# D C# D E
Masses trampling on my feet, inconsiderate in their heat
E G
Those rats breeding angriness and spite
A C D A A - G - F#m - E - D - E E
Never have done anything right for people like you and me
E G
Walk over all the people you can't see
A
If they die there's more bread for me
C D
Like snakes crawling through the grass
A A G F# E D E E
No time to catch your breath
AA G F# E D E E
Crazy people lost their heads

Masses trampling on my feet, inconsiderate in their heat

See that face man look at me,
A A G F#m E D E E
he's much too selfish to see
D D C# D C# D E E
Once he was warm and was kind
D D C# D C# D E E
Now all he has got is a pinstripe mind
