Chords

This is quite possibly the simplest song they ever wrote, less than 2 minutes and maybe 30 seconds of it aren't spent playing F, I only put it over every line because the moderator said I had to.
F: 1-3-3-2-1-1
C: 8-10-10-9-8-8
Bb: 6-8-8-7-6-6

F 
Atom secrets, secret leaflet

F
Have the boys found the leak yet?

F
The molehill sets the wheel in motion

F
His downfall picks up locomotion
[Chorus, all one line of it]
    C                                   Bb
The people must have something good to read on a Sunday
[Verses]
F 
The leader's wife takes a government car

F
In the dark to meet her minister

F
But the leader never leaves his door ajar

F
As he swings his whip from the Boer War

F
He wore a leather mask for his dinner guests

F
Totally nude and with deep respect

F
Proposed a toast to the votes he gets

F
The feeling of power and the thought of sex!

F
Now the girl let the fat man touch her

F
Vodka fumes and the feel of a vulture

F
The driver waited in the embassy car

F
The fat man's trap was set for capture

F
So the girl let the thin man touch her

F
Mixing questions, drunken laughter

F
The ministry car was waiting there

F
A minister knows his own affair
["Chorus"]
    C                                   Bb
The people must have something good to read on a Sunday
