Chords for Matilda The Musical - The Smell of Rebellion - Lyrics!! (HD)

[Eb] _ [D] _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ This [G] school of late has started freaking
Quiet, maggots, when I'm speaking! _ _ _ _
_ _ Reeking with a most disturbing [D] scent
Only the finest nostrils [Eb] smell it
[Gb] But I know it oh too well
[G] It is [A] the odour [Bb] of [C] rebellion
[D] It's the [Am] bouquet [Gm] of dissent
_ _ And you [Cm] may bet your britches
This [Eb] headmistress [Bb] finds this foul [Gm] odiferousness
[Am] _ [Ab] _ Wholly olfactorily [D] insulting _
And [Cm] so to [Eb] stop the [Cm] stanchious spread
[Bb] I find a session of [Gm] phys-ed
_ [Db] Sorts the [D] merely rank from [G] the _ revolting
_ The [Ebm] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] smell of rebellion [A] comes out [Gm] in sweet
And phys [Eb]-ed will get you sweating
[D] And it [Gm] won't be [A] long before I [Gm] smell the [C] pong
[Eb] Of aiding and [D] abetting
A bit [Cm] of phys-ed will tell us
Who has [Db] a head full of [D] rebellious thoughts [N] Hold, hold!
Just [Cm] like a rotten egg floats [G] to the top
Of a bucket [D] of water
_ [Gm] The smell of rebellion
[A] The stench [Gm] of revolt
[A] The [G] reek [Ebm] of _ [Gm] insubordination
[Ab] The [G] whiff of resistance
[A] The [Gbm] pong of [Gm] dissent
[Cm] The [D] funk [Eb] of mutiny in [D] action _
[Cm] Before a weed becomes too [Dbm] big and greedy
You really [D] need to live it in the [Bb] bud Position two!
Before [Cm] the worm starts to turn
[Db] You must scrape off the dirt
[D] And rip it from the mud
[G] _
[Fm] The [B] whiff of [Am] insurgence
The [Em] stench [Am] of intent
[E] The [F] reek of _ prepubescent [E] protest
[Ab] The [Am] funk of defiance
[E] The odour [C] of coup
[Dm] The [F] wasp of anarchy in [E] progress
_ [Dm] Once we've exorcised these demons
They [C] shall be too pooped for dreaming
[B] Some double-time discipline
[E] Should stop the rot from setting _ in
Alright, let's step it up Double [N] time _ _
_ [F] One, two, three, four!
Discipline!
Discipline for children who aren't [E] listening
For midgets who are fidgeting and whispering
[Dm] In history, they're chattering [F] and chittering
They're nattering and twittering
Is tempered with [E] a smattering of [G] discipline
We must begin insisting on rigidity and discipline
Persistently resisting this anarchistic [Dm] mischief
In these minutes you are [C] frittering
On pandering and [F] pitying
While [G] littlings like [A] this, they just want discipline
The simpering and whimpering
[Em] The dribbling and the spittling
The mere signing the tissues
And if you can fix
There [Dm] is no mystery to [F] mastering
The art of classroom mistressing
It's [E] discipline, [Am] discipline
The smell of [E] rebellion
The [Am] stench of [E] revolt
The [F] reek of _ [Bm] prepubescent plotting
[Am] The whiff of resistance
[Bm] The pong of [Am] dissent
The funk [F] of moral _ [E] fabarotting _ _
[Fm] Imagine a world with no [Eb] children _ _
[Cm] _ Close your eyes and [Db] just dream
_ [Ab]
Imagine, come on try it
[Eb] The peace and the quiet
[Cm] A bubbling [Db] stream
_ Now _ _ _
[Ab] imagine a woods [Eb] with a cottage
And [Fm]
inside that cottage we [Db] find
[Ab] A [Bbm] dwarf called Zeke
A carnival freak
[Ab] Who [Db] can [Eb] fold paper hats with his mines
And he says
[Ab] Don't let them [Eb] steal your horses No
_ [Fm] Don't let them throw them [Db] away No
[Fm] If you find your way [Cm] through
[Fm] They'll be waiting [Cm] for you [Bbm] Singing
_ He's _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] mad
_ _ And there, just like I said
[C] The stinky maggot [Ab] rears his head
[B]
Even the squittiest, piteous mess
Can harbour seeds of stinkiness
Have [E] you ever seen anything more repellent?
Have you ever [Gb] smelt anything worse
[G] Than that smell of [Bm] rebellion?
[Gb] The stench of [Bm] revolt
_ [Gb] [Em] The reek [G] of _ anti _ [Gb] [Bm]-abordination
[Gb] The whiff of [Bm] resistance
[Gb] The pong [Bm] of dissent
[Em] _
And [Dm] I will [G] not stop till you are [Gb] squashed
Till this rebellion is [G] squashed
Till glorious, [E] sweaty [B]
[G] discipline
Has [Gb] washed this sickening skin _ _ _ [B] Away!
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Bb] _ [D] _ [A] _ [G] _ [D] _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
