I Predict A Riot

I know this tab is probably wrong - 
it's the first full song I learnt, 
and then I heard
song and it's pretty darned sparse. 
But this way is really fun to play, 
it's based
power chords and lets you really 
pelt some sound out of your guitar -
 feel free to use
Great fun for the beginner.

Watchin' the people get lairy
It's not very pretty I tell thee
Walkin' through town is quite scary
Not very sensible either
A friend of a friend, he got beaten
He looked the wrong way at a 
policeman
Would never have happened to Smeaton
Not very sensible,

Oh, I try to get to my taxi
Man in a tracksuit attacks me!
He said that he saw it before me
And wants to get things a bit gorey
Girls run around with no clothes on
To borrow a pound for a condom!
'F it wasn't for chip fat, they'd be
 frozen
They're not very sensible,

[Verse 1 Repeat]
Play this VERY quietly (drop the 
volume on your guitar, softens the 
distortion too). Add
