A gag, a plastic bag on a monument

(over the bass solo)

"The representative from California has the floor"

Zieg Heil to the president Gasman

Bombs away is your punishment

Pulverize the Eiffel towers

Who criticize your government

Bang bang goes the broken glass and

Kill all the fags that don't agree

Trials by fire, setting fire

Is not a way that's meant for me

C
Just cause (hey, hey, hey), just cause, because we're outlaws yeah!


[Chorus]

Fm       Db               Ab              Eb
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
Fm       Db               Ab              Eb
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
Fm           Db            Ab          C
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
                         Fm     Db      Ab      Eb
This is our lives on holiday
