Key: F# minor
Verse 1
Gm
Oi, oi, stop, come back, you
Verse 2
Gm
I was instrumental in creating the
company
A founding father of the movement,
some say
Had a hundred youngsters under my
guidance at any one time
Willing to learn, eager to please
Bb
Gm
And salaried with the im plicit threat
of an instant dismissal
Bb
Cm
(Oi, I'm warning you)
Bb
All legal mind, hey
Meager scraps for tender prey
Cm
Bb
But everybody gotta learn sometime
C
Bb
and you learn that the hard way
Gm
In the bustling hive of activity known
Verse 3
As my, as my holy global enterprise
Gm
We've created rules that
you can't find in the book
A different type of prison for a
brand new type of crook
Bb
Hey,
Verse 4
Gm
Bb
feed me, my mind is greedy,
Gm
massage my ego
And read to me, slow stories
Bb
from my youth
Gm
Just like the Beano,
Bb
Cm
Bb
colonial overtones, I know
Cm
Hey, but so what?
C
Bb
Cm
I like the plot and the way the
Bb
colors pop from the page
Gm
Don't have to justify my rage
Being a hypocrite does not devalue the merit
Bb
Gm
of the accusations made
Everybody's got dirt on everybody else in this day and age,
mind
(Come back you little bastard)
(What have you got in your pockets?
Empty your bloody pockets out)
Verse 5
Gm
I look good, dead good,
Bb
Gm
too good, good for my age
But if I'm not on the receiving end of
Cm
Bb
never- ending compliments
Gm
My thinking implement is bound to be,
in a constant state of discontent
And I'm hellbent on expanding my
Bb
heaven- sent empire, ethically
C
But not at my own expense, no
Bb
Peaking through the hole in
Cm
Bb
the neighbor's fence
C
Bb
Gm
It all looks pretty good
And just don't look under the hood
Bb
Gm
The engine is completely
caked in snake oil and old mud
I need something new to pick me up,
because
Bb
Gm
If I'm not pumped up,
I'm impotent, I'm dead wood
I'm dead wood
Bb
Gm
And we don't want a repeat
C
Gm
of the same thing happening again
Cm
I want to be relevant,
C
Bb
Gm
I don't want to be a dud
Verse 6
Gm
We've created rules that you
can't find in the book
A different type of prison for a
Bb
brand new type of crook
C
Bb
Ever since the incident,
C
Bb
my complete incompetence
C
Bb
Has been exposed to everyone and
C
Bb
rendered me irrelevant
Gm
We've cre ated rules that
you can't find in the book
A different type of prison for a brand
new type of crook
Ever since the incident,
my complete incompetence
D
Gm
Has been ex posed to everyone
Verse 7

I'm irrelevant
Bb
I'm irrelevant
Gm
I'm irrelevant
I'm irrelevant
Bb
I'm irrelevant
Gm
Bb
I'm irrelevant
Gm
I'm irrelevant
I'm irrelevant
I'm irrelevant
(Ever since the incident,
my complete incompetence)
I'm irrelevant
I'm irrelevant
(Has been exposed to everyone
and rendered me irrelevant)
Bb
Gm
I'm irrelevant
Verse 8

I'm irrelevant
I'm irrelevant
I'm irrelevant
