          D                             A
We will laugh the day that Thatcher dies
                              G
Even though we know it's not right
                            D     A
We will dance and sing all night

        D         A
I was blind in 1979
              G
By '82 I had clues
      D                A
By 1986 I was mad as hell

                  Em                      G
The teachers at school They took us for fools
                        Bm                    A
'Cause they never taught us what we should do
                     Em                   G
But Christ, we were strong We knew all along
               Bm                       A
We taught ourselves the right from wrong

         G
And the punk rock kids and techno kids
           A
Well it's not their fault
           G
And those hip-hop boys and heavy metal girls
          A
No, it's not their fault

        D                                      A
It was love, but Tories don't know what that means
                               G
She was Michelle Cox from the lower stream
                        D                       A
She wore high-heeled shoes while the rest wore flat soles
          D                              A
And the playground taught her how to be cruel
                                 G
I talked politics and she called me a fool
                         D                 A
She wrapped an ankle chain 'round my left-wing heart

                  Em                      G
The teachers at school They took us for fools
                        Bm                    A
'Cause they never taught us what we should do
                     Em                   G
But Christ, we were strong We knew all along
               Bm                       A
We taught ourselves the right from wrong

               G
Because those punk rock kids with punk rock kicks
          A
Well it's not their fault
               G
And those hip-hop boys and heavy metal girls
          A
No, it's not their fault

          D                             A
We will laugh the day that Thatcher dies
                              G
Even though we know it's not right
                            D     A
We will dance and sing all night

Ding dong, the witch is dead
A                                  G
Which old witch? The wicked witch

Ding dong, the witch is dead
      D               A
The wicked witch is dead
