[C]"Err Simmer
[Db]down [C]ladies [C5]and gentlemen, Simmer [C]down, hey,
you're acting [Ab]rather irresponsibly [C]right [Ab]now,[Db][C5]
[C]god damn you all"

[Verse 2]
[C5]Hold your horses, steady now,[C]
[Db]'Cause [C]we're float[C5]ing precariously

everything we [C]stand [Db]for
[C]Is [C5]rather [C]unsta[C5]ble rig[C]ht
[C5]now[C][Db][C][C5][C][Fm]
So [C5]I think I'll kill some [C]time and have
you done [Db]me dium r[C]are[C5]
[C]But I think I'll tease my [C5]pallet [C]with
some [Db]crudités, just to pre[C]pare
[Fm]Cos you see we've had [C5]a joker in the
pack now for [C]quite [Db]some [Ab]time[C][C5]
[C]So I [Fm]reckon it's [C]just about time we
[Db]roast this [C]swine.
