E Whatever happened to childhood? A We're all scared of the kids in our neighboorhood C#m They're not small, charming and harmless, F# A E They're a violent bunch of bastard little shits. E And anyone who looks younger than me A Makes me check for my wallet, my phone and my keys, C#m And I'm tired of being tired out F# A E Always being on the lookout for thieving gits. [Chorus] A B F#m We're all wondering how we ended up so scared A B F#m We spent ten long years teaching our kids not to care A B F#m And that "there's no such thing as society" anyway, A E And all the rich folks act surprised A E When all sense of community dies, A E F#m A But you just closed your eyes to the other side of all the things that she did. B E Thatcher fucked the kids. [Verse 2] E And it seems a little bit rich to me, A The way the rich only ever talk of charity C#m In times like the seventies, the broken down economy F# A E Meant even the upper tier was needing some help. E But as soon as things look brighter, A Yeah the grin gets wider and the grip gets tighter, C#m And for every teenage tracksuit mugger F# A E There's a guy in a suit who wouldn't lift a finger for anybody else. [Chorus] A B F#m We're all wondering how we ended up so scared A B F#m We spent ten long years teaching our kids not to care A B F#m And that "there's no such thing as society" anyway, A E And all the rich folks act surprised A E When all sense of community dies, A E F#m A But you just closed your eyes to the other side of all the things that she did. B E Thatcher fucked the kids. [Bridge] C#m G# You've got a generation raised on the welfare state, A E Enjoyed all its benefits and did just great, F#m C#m But as soon as they were settled as the richest of the rich, A B They kicked away the ladder, told the rest of us that life's a bitch. C#m G# And it's no surprise that all the fuck-ups A E Didn't show up until the kids had grown up. F#m C#m But when no one ever smiles or ever helps a stranger, A B E Is it any fucking wonder our society's in danger of collapse? [Verse 3] E So all the kids are bastards, A But don't blame them, yeah, they learn by example. C#m Blame the folks who sold the future for the highest bid F# A B7 E That's right, Thatcher fucked the kids.
