Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
There  are people going hungry every day
 They've got nothing  on their plates
 And you're filling  your fat face  with every different  kind of cake
 And if you ever go lardy,  or go lame
 I will drop  you straight away
 That's the price  you have to pay
 For every stupid  thing you say
 There are people going lonely,  and they'll stay
 Lonely fay  into the year
 Because you're making  blinkers fashionable
 And fashionably  you'll say
 "All is equal in love  and war" and
 "I'm sorry,  but I've got  some things to do"
 And you pretend  to read a book  you'll never finish  till the day
That  the author dedicates it
To  A Century Of Fakers
They  took your mould and they burned it on the fire in history  today
 Yeah, the author dedicates  it
 To A Century  Of Fakers
 He was an anarchist,  he tried his best but it wasn't  good enough
 la...):
 (verse 2 the same as verse 1)
 Did I say I would see you soon?
 Well I'm sorry, but i just came off my bike
 And my face is scarred
 And chance has barred me seeing you tonight
 I was over the other side of the city
 And if the truth be known I'd say
 That you look great from there before you shaved your golden hair today
 Everybody's trying  to make us
 Another century  of fakers
 They took you mould  and burned it on the fire of history  today
 Everybody's trying  to make us
 Another cool decade  of fakers
 Everybody's trying  to make us
 Another century  of fakers
 (End on )
