[F] [C] They get up in the morning [Bb] from the alarm clocks
Born to [F] take the 8th, 15th [C] into the city
There's a whistle up above the [Bb] people
Pushing people, shoving [F] at the girls

And if the train's on time
[Bb] You can get to work by 9
[F] And start your slaving job to [C] get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
