Intro: Cbma7 Gbma7  E
Eb              Db                                 Cb
  Who put fifty tons of shit on the Foreign Office roof?
Eb                       Cb
   Who suffers from nine known diseases?
Gbma7     E
      Who gets up in the morning when the sun comes up
    Eb                 Db
And make their beds of paper clips and bus tickets
Cb
All around their heads
    Bb                      C
Who congregate around Tra - falgar Square
D                         Gm
  Taking pot shots at the tourists
          Cm
Oh you've got to watch out
         Gm                             Cm
When you wander round the square in the morning
F11
   Cause they're everywhere, they're everywhere.

Cbma7                         Gbma7
Here we have an honest man, a civil servant to boot
   E                            Eb
He lived high up in the Ministry
            Db                         Cb
And when he wished to make a point, he knew just what to do
Eb                            Cbma7             Gbma7
   His window ledges were all covered in grease
E                  Eb
I want them out of here
                 Db
He said to me, I want them gone
     Bb             C
Be - cause you see,   oh don't you see
D                          Gm
None of us are getting any younger
              Cm
You've got to follow your nose
          Gm                           Cm
And if it tells you that you've got to go
                   F11
Well that's because   they're everywhere, they're everywhere...

Cbma7                            Gbma7
So we called in those men, those horrible men
    E                           Eb
And set them to work on the rooftops
              Db                       Cbma7
You see their van is very plain, and I know they're too ashamed
   Eb                                 Cbma7
To wear their "by-appointment" badges any-more
Gbma7                        E
Sometimes they use Vaseline, sometimes they use the pill
Eb                      Db         Cbma7
   I've often seen them with a gun
           Bb               C
But as the years go by, old habits seem to die
    D                             Gm
And nowadays they knockatize them all
          Cm
Oh you've got to watch out
       Gm                              Cm
As you wander 'round the Square in the morning
F11
   They're everywhere, they're everywhere.
