Propagandhi - And We Thought Nation States Were A Bad Idea Chords

[Intro]
G D Em C C/B Am
 
[Verse 1]
G
"Publicly subsidized! Privately profitable!"
D
The anthem of the upper-tier, puppeteer untouchable.
Em
Focus a moment, nod in approval,
Am                                             G
Bury our heads in the bar-codes of these neo-colonials.
 
G
Our former nemesis, the romance of the nation state,
D
Now plays fundraiser for a new brand power-concentrate.
Em                                          Am
Try again, but now we're confused; what is "class war"?
                                G
Is this class war? Yes, this is class war.
 
[Chorus]
C
And I'm just a kid.
Em                      D                        G
I can't believe I gotta worry about this kind of sh*t.
C             G Am C G
What a stupid world.
 
C              Em
And it's beautiful,
     D                G
No regard for principle.
C             G Am C D
What a stupid world.
 
[Verse 2]
G
Born, hired, disposed.
      Am
Where that job lands, everybody knows.
        C
You can tell by the smile on the CEO,
D
Environmental restraints are about to go.
 
G
You can bet laws will be set
Am
To ensure the benefit
   C
Of unrestricted labour laws,
D
Kept in place by displaced government death squads.
 
[Bridge]
G         Am
They own us.
Am       C
They own us.
C       D
Produce us.
D
Consume us.
 
G         Am
They own us.
Am       C
They own us.
C       D
Produce us.
D          G
Consume us.
 
[Chorus]
C                 Em   D G
Can you f**king believe?
C             G   Am  C  G
What a stupid world.
 
D                  Em                    C
f**k this bullsh*t display of class-loyalties.
    G                                   D                  Em         C
The media and "our" leaders wrap it all up in a flag, sh*t-rag, hooray.
