[G] until he came [C] up with the plan [F] to be no [Dm] exploitation,
work [Bm] up all his kin, [Em] no [Dm] discrimination,
because the color [A] of your skin.
[Dm]
No more [B] private property, [A] it would [C] not be allowed.

[G] They'd come there with men [C] much like me,
[Am] froggish men, [G] [Bb] unpleasant [C] to see.
[Db] Were you to kiss one, Karl, [Bb] nary a prince [F] would there be.
Oh, Karl, [Ab] the world [F] isn't fair, [Bb] it isn't [F] and never will be.

[Bb] where the rich just get richer,
