[Verse 1]
C                     C6              C
Some people might say my life is in a rut,

                     C6          C
 But I'm quite happy with what I got,

                      C6                  C
People might say that I should strive for more,

    C
But I'm so happy...

  C6            A                    C#m/G#
I can't see the point!
Something's happening here today,
  A                          C#m/G#
A show of strength with your Boy's Brigade,

    A                 C#m/G#
And I'm so happy, and you're so kind,

    A                   C#m/G#
You want more money, of course I don't mind,

       D                         E
To buy nuclear textbooks for a - tomic crimes,

        A                    C#m
And the public gets what the public wants,

    D                        E
But I want nothing this so - ciety's got
[Chorus]
          A                   C#m
I'm going underground, (Going underground!)

              D
Well, let the brass bands play,

         E
And feet start to pound,

      A                   C#m
Going underground, (Going underground!)

              D
Well, let the boys all sing,

             E                      A    C#m/G#  D  E
And let the boys all shout for to - morrow
[Verse 2]
C                          C6              C
Some people might get some pleasure out of hate,

                     C6          C
Me? I've enough al - ready on my plate,

                       C6              C
People might need some tension to re - lax,

            C    C6
Me? I'm too busy dodging...

              A               C#m/G#
...'tween the flak!
What you see is what you get,
       A                          C#m/G#
You've made your bed, you better      ...lie in it,

    A                       C#m/G#
You choose your leaders and place your trust,

         A                            C#m/G#
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust,

           D
You'll see kidney machines...

            E
Replaced by rockets and guns,

        A                     C#m
And the public wants what the public gets,

    D                           E
But I don't care what this so - ciety wants
[Chorus]
          A                   C#m
I'm going underground, (Going underground!)

              D
Well, let the brass bands play,

         E
And feet start to pound,

      A                   C#m
Going underground, (Going underground!)

           D
So let the boys all sing,

            E                       Bm

We talk, and we talk, until my head explodes,

   Bm                      A
I turn on the news, and my body froze,

      C#m                 D
These braying sheep on my TV screen,

     E                    Esus4    E
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream
