D-DU-UDU
 1 2 3 4 5 6|1 2 3 4 5 6|
 fis  x4
Why  do I  sense, benevolence
You  stand  tall at my great  expense
Thick  words of gratitude, what a price to pay
Stuck  in my throat, I sell every word I say
   fis
 But I don't want your charity
   fis
 Twisting me round
   fis
 I don't want your charity
 Keeping me down...
 1 2 3 4 5 6|1 2 3 4 5 6|
 fis  x4
Why  does your  world keep burying
Gorging  much deeper,  than it's ever  been
Rubbing  still harder, salt on my hurt
Licking  my burns while I grovel in your dirt
   fis
 But I don't want your charity
   fis
 Twisting me round
   fis
 I don't want your charity
 Keeping me down...
 Oh, you’re keeping  me down, AAAAHhHHhh
 1 2 3 4 5 6|1 2 3 4 5 6|
 fis  x2
 You pity  me with your tasteless gestures
 Gratitude for kind
 But your bludgeoned,  intentioned objectives
 Are screwing with my mind,  screwing with my mind
   fis
 But I don't want your charity
   fis
 Twisting me round
   fis
 I don't want your charity
 Keeping me down...
   fis
 But I don't want your charity
   fis
 Twisting me round
   fis
 I don't want your charity
 Keeping me down...
   fis
 But I don't want your charity
   fis
 Twisting me round
   fis
 I don't want your charity
 Keeping me down...
