Em
Pass me that lovely little gun

My dear, my darling one

The cleaners are coming, one by one
G            D
You don't even want to let them start

Em C Am G D

Em
They are knocking now upon your door
С
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
Em    C    Am   G    D
Forgive us now for what we've done
Em    C    Am   G    D
It started out as a bit of fun
Em    C    Am   G    D
Here, take these before we run away
Em    C    Am   G   D
The keys to the gulag

Em        Cmaj7
Oooo children

Here comes Frank and poor old Jim

They're gathering round with all my friends

We're older now, the light is dim
G            D
And you are only just beginning

Em    C    Am   G    D
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children
Em    C    Am   G    D
We have the answer to all your fears
Em    C    Am   G    D
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear
Em    C    Am   G    D
It's round about, it's somewhere here
Em    C    Am   G    D
Lost amongst our winnings

Em        Cmaj7

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

Em    C    Am   G    D
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children
Em    C    Am   G    D
Poor old Jim's white as a ghost
Em    C    Am   G    D
He's found the answer that was lost
Em    C    Am   G    D
We're all weeping now, weeping because
Em    C    Am   G    D
There ain't nothing we can do to protect you

Em        Cmaj7

Em
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
C
The train that goes to the Kingdom
Am
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
G            D
And the train ain't even left the station

Em
Hey little train! Wait for me!
C
I once was blind but now I see
Am
Have you left a seat for me?
G            D
Is that such a stretch of the imagination?

Em
Hey little train! Wait for me!
C
I was held in chains but now I'm free
Am
I'm hanging in there, don't you see
G            D
In this process of elimination

Em
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
C
The train that goes to the Kingdom
Am
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
G            D
It's beyond my wildest expectation

Em
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
C
The train that goes to the Kingdom
Am
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
G            D
And the train ain't even left the station
