Margaret Thatcher on TV

               G                D           C
Shocked by the deaths that took place in Beijing

      G                D           C
Seems strange that she should be offended

         G          D        C
The same orders are given by her

G         D           C
I've said this before now

               G            D             C
You said I was childish and you'll say it now

G    D          C
Remember what I told you

    G         D             C
If they hated me, they will hate you

                  G        D       C
England's not the mythical land of Madame George and roses

         G       D               C
It's the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds

     G        D        C
And I love my boy, and that's why I'm leaving

         G               D                 C
I don't want him to be aware that there's any such thing as grieving

G            D             C
Young mother down at Smith Field, 5 a.m.

G           D            C
Looking for food for her kids

       G              D          C
In her arms she holds three cold babies

        G               D                 C
And the first word that they learned was "Please"

G         D         C
These are dangerous days

                G          D             C
To say what you feel is to dig your own grave

G    D          C
Remember what I told you

       G           D                C
If you were of the world they would love you

                  G        D       C
