Is English culture old folks freezing in their homes alone?
C1*
Is this my home?
D*
Is English culture letting desperate people sink like stones?
C2*
Is this my home?

That if there's one thing that I know
If there's one thing that I know
[Chorus]

It's gambling in the city while the mortgage payments trickle overnight
G* C1*
Braying in the commons like it's all just some debating exercise
D* C3*
Targeting the weakest just to try and keep the wool over our eyes
D*
Is spreading this division supposed to give me national pride?
C3*
Tell me who is on our side
Tell me who is on our side
[Chorus]
D*
You can't hide the cracks with a Union Jack
Cadd9
I can't eat that, I can't eat that
D*
I won't break my back for a Union Jack
Cadd9
I can't eat that, I can't eat that
D*
You can't hide the cracks with a Union Jack
