[E] [D]
[A] That took the [E] terrorist, never grew up, [D] lied for me, she never [A] will.
Broken down TV, [E] sits in the corner, [A] pictures standing still, standing [E] still.
[A] That took the [E] terrorist, lost all her [A] heritage, precious Henry's care.
Lost all her [E] history in the [D] family, meek woman, God [A] forbid, God [E] forbid.
[D] And it sounds like an [A] empty house, standing [E] still.
[D] And it's quieter than [A] a mouse, standing [E] still.
[A] That took the [E] terrorist, never grew up, [D] I hope she never [A] will.
Says she's an [E] Arab, sits in her [D] terrace, says she's got crime [A] to kill, crime [E] to kill.
[D] And her bald head's a [A] QA, [E] God forbid.
[D] And they all want to win [A] the lot, God [E] forbid.

[E] [D]
[A] [E]
God just, god just, God just, God just, God just, God just.
[D] And the rod is a [A] queuing up, God [E] forbid.
[D] And the rod is a [A] queuing up, [E] God forbid.
[D] And the rod is a [A] queuing up, God [E]
forbids.
