Song progression:

[Intro] x1

[Riff 1] x4

[Riff 1] x2 w/ lyrics:

Ooh, there's no bread, let them eat 
cake.
There's no end to what they'll take.
Flaunt the fruits of noble birth.
Wash the salt into the earth.

[Riff 2] x2 w/ lyrics:

La guillotine will claim her bloody 
prize.
Free the dungeons of the innocent.
The king will kneel and let his 
kingdom rise.

[Riff 1] x2

[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:

Ooh, bloodstained velvet, dirty 
lace.
Naked fear on every face.
See them bow their heads to die
As we would bow as they rode by.

[Riff 2] x2 w/ lyrics:

La guillotine will claim her bloody 
prize.
Sing oh choirs of cacophony.
The king has kneeled to let his 
kindgom rise.

[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:

Lessons taught but never learned.
All around us anger burns.
Guide the future by the past.
Long ago the mould was cast.

[Riff 2] x2 /w lyrics:

La guillotine claimed her bloody 
prize.
Hear the echoes of the centuries.
Power isn't all that money buys.
