Intro
C# F# C# F#
[Verse 1]
C# F# B G#
See the cracks upon the wall, we do not know the meaning of it all
C# F# B G#
Ain't no fire to warm my feet, ain't got a nickel for a bite to eat
C# F#
We're not workin', we're not slavin'
C# F#
Ain't worth a brain, 'cause we're not worth savin'
[Chorus]
C# F# D# G#
Second hand people, tall as a steeple
C# F# B G# F# C#
Softer than treacle, in a pond are we, second hand people
[Verse 1]
C# F# B G#
Ain't no mirror to comb my face, just keep on going from place to place
C# F# B G#
Ain't got no lights above my head, don't even bother to leave my bed
C# F#
We're not livin', we're existin'
C# F#
We're not movin', just resistin'
[Chorus]
C# F# D# G#
Second hand people, tall as a steeple
C# F# B G# F# C#
Softer than treacle, in a pond are we, second hand people
[Outro]
F# C# F# C#
Tall as a steeple, softer than treacle...
