Em 
   Pass me that lovely little gun

   You don't even want to let them start 

Ponte: Em  C  Am  G  D 

Verso 2: 
Em 
   They are knocking now upon your door 
C 
   They measure the room, they know the score 
Am 
   They're mopping up the butcher's floor 
G                 D 
   Of your broken little hearts 


Em    C    Am   G    D 
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children 

Verso 3: 
Em 
   Forgive us now for what we've done 
C 
   It started out as a bit of fun

   Here, take these before we run away 
G           D 
   The keys to the gulag

Em        C7+ 
   Oooo children

Verso 4: 
Here comes Frank and poor old Jim 
They're gathering round with all my friends 
We're older now, the light is dim 
And you are only just beginning 


Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children 

Verso 5: 
We have the answer to all your fears 
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear 
It's round about, it's somewhere here 
Lost amongst our winnings 


Oooo children 
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice 
Children 
Rejoice, rejoice 

Verso 6: 
The cleaners have done their job on you 
They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove 
They've hosed you down, you're good as new 
They're lining up to inspect you 


Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children 

Verso 7: 
Poor old Jim's white as a ghost 
He's found the answer that was lost 
We're all weeping now, weeping because 
There ain't nothing we can do to protect you 


Oooo children 
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice 
Children 
Rejoice, rejoice 

Verso 8: 
Hey little train! We are all jumping on 
The train that goes to the Kingdom 
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun 
And the train ain't even left the station 

Verso 9: 
Hey little train! Wait for me! 
I once was blind but now I see 
Have you left a seat for me? 
Is that such a stretch of the imagination? 

Verso 10: 
Hey little train! Wait for me! 
I was held in chains but now I'm free 
I'm hanging in there, don't you see 
In this process of elimination 

Verso 11: 
Hey little train! We are all jumping on 
The train that goes to the Kingdom 
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun 
It's beyond my wildest expectation 

Verso 12: 
Hey little train! We are all jumping on 
The train that goes to the Kingdom 
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun 
And the train ain't even left the station
