Verse 2
Once (B major) upon a time
when money was king
People thought life was all about bling
They'd borrow a lot just
to buy nice things
But tomorrow on their butts
their debt would bite them
They wanted to own more,
banks wanted to loan more
Politicians want to see the
economy grow more
So though Bob's too poor to afford it
He's given a load of dough
for a mortgage
Everybody brawling,
broker gets bonus
Lender buys Porsche
and gets his wrist frozen
Bob puts rims on his shoulder
Traders rack up their debt
and sell it on those bogs
The interest on his debt's a nice lump
Merry Christmas,
time to slice up Bob's turkey
And all the banks (E minor) nibble a bit
So (A major) when Bob defaults,
they all get the (B major) shits
When (A major) the house (E minor) of cards (B major)
come falling down (E minor)
I'm left holding the joker
(A major) Did we come so far (B major) for
it to all fall down?
(F sharp minor) I gave you my (F sharpdim) dreams (F sharp minor) an
d you (E minor) broke them
Dominoes fall, (B major) Casadel Bobby's no more
But in a pond he's so small
Big fishy bank profits off toxic debt
Can't flop, the consequence is so raw
So Bob's home is foreclosed,
but the government begs
the banks for more dough
They call it a bailout,
and they're using a tax bond paid out
But still the economy's whiplash,
to get a move in the
government print cash
Called QE123, we're at sea,
so called Queen Lizzie
she brings the whole fleet
The banks get a (E minor) triple suite bonus,
(B major) but now Bob's officially home (F sharp minor) less
And the (E minor) money they got
they're supposed to loan us,
but don't so the economy grows less
What (A major) naughty guys, stock market dives,
(B major) businesses can't get money or survive
At work Bob gets a (F sharp minor) P45
From (E minor) property ladder to poverty (B major) line
When (E minor) the house of cards (B major)
come falling down (E minor)
I'm left holding the joker
If (A major) we come so far (B major) for it to all fall down
I gave (F sharp minor) you (B major) my chains (A major) an
d you (E minor) broke down
Now (B major) Bob is jobless,
the banks have got this free money
Like a lollipop of a toddler
They're not gonna lend
it to dumb shit public
Bob nah, they put it in commodity stocks
Yeah, buy up the basics,
fruit, vegetables, and maize
It's the safest bet,
but traders treating these
like casino dice
Inflates the price of (B major) bread,
the (E minor) poor in the East need their toast
They go (B major) to war (F sharp minor) with police
and pharaohs
They took (E minor) beats,
so back the streets and their votes
Off season, it plots a seed in his throat
Get (A major) s together friends
that are all affected
Head (B major) s into town and they
(E minor) start protest (B major) ing
With students, (F sharp minor) right and lefties
Stop the war (E minor) folks and soldiers bro,
no pensions
Feds hit poor with a truncheon,
media (B major) don't trust him
But he saw (F sharp minor) in the East they beat gun (E minor) s
And the government just
can't hush them
Bombs occupy from Thailand to London
All (A major) the globe sees a normal folk leader
Protest (B major) against the small coal delete
It's 99D, (E minor) (F sharp minor) the 1 %'s (B major) green
They're (A major) outnumbered (E minor) now
whenever it must be
Something, (A major) they hadn't agreed
(B major) While asleep the police just rushed them
No (E minor) revolution, (C major) but it was to it advised
Now a new way of (E minor) thinking
is crystallised
(A major) Thrown off the broken gold chain
We're (B major) no longer sold on growth
for growth's sake
Fuck cash still,
now (F sharp minor) we don't chase (F sharpdim) the
same dreams
(A major) Splatting the (E minor) river,
now we've changed the mainstream
We (B major) ain't got a refund (A major) on new job (B major) s
We ain't one man, more than a few lost
But now we got new (F sharp minor) thoughts
And (A major) maybe that's (B major) worth
more than a few bought
When (A major) (E minor) the house (A major) of card
(B major) s come falling down (A major)
(E minor) I'm left holding the joker (A major)
If we come so far (B major) for it to all fall down
I (F sharp minor) gave (B major) you my (A major) dreams
and (E minor) you broke them
(A major) When the house of (B major) cards
come falling down (E minor)
I'm the last hole in the joke, God
(A major) Did we come so far (B major) for
it to all fall down?
(F sharp minor) I gave (F sharpdim) you my seed
(E minor) s and you broke them
(A major) Oh, oh, (B major) oh, (E minor) oh, oh, oh
Oh, you broke (A major) them (B major)
Oh, (F sharpdim) oh, oh, oh, oh .
