D A G A Well the fly's in the milk and the cat's in the stew D A E Another bun in the oven, oh, what to do? D A G A We'll laugh and we'll sing and try to bring D A E D A pound from your pocket, good day to you G Cadd9/F Oh, these hard times

B A B The politicians sat on the wall A B And traded with the union game B A B Someone slapped a writ on our deficit A F# Not a penny left to our name G Cadd9/F G Oh, the times are hard and the credits are lean Cadd9/F G And they toss and they turn in sleep G Cadd9/F G And the line they take is the line they make Cadd9/F G But it's not the line they keep

B A B The cow jumped over yesterday's moon A B And the lock ran away with the key B A B You know what you like and you like what you know A F# But there is no jam for tea G Cadd9/F G Well, the light, it is failing along the green belt Cadd9/F G As we follow the hard road signs G Cadd9/F G Semi-detached in our suburban-ness Cadd9/F G We're living in these hard times
