Taxpayers’ money where does it go, Not even George Osborne knows,

Leaders committed a cardinal sin, open the borders let them all come in,
E7 A
illegal immigrants in every town, stand up and be counted Blair and Brown.
Chorus:
A E
Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,
E7 A
we can trade with the world again, when Nigel is at No. 10.
A E
The British people have been let down, that’s why Ukip is making ground,
E7 A
from Crewe to Cleethorpes, to outer Hendon, they don't believe Cameron's referendum.
A E
Coalition could be a fact, with any party we could make a pact,
E7 A
stop telling lies about us to, and we’ll stop telling the truth about you.

Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,

Though our pensions scheme is in a mess, we need money for the NHS,
E7 A
to Jean-Cleade Juncker we’re giving away, 55 million every day.
A E
Oh what a farce he won the vote, this is my favourite Juncker quote,
E7 A
he looked a reporter straight in the eye and said, “when things get serious it's time
to lie”.
Chorus:
A E
Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,
E7 A
we can trade with the world again, when Nigel is at No. 10.

The EU live in wonderland, tried to ban bent bananas and British jam,
E7 A
we don't want jam the EU way, jam yesterday tomorrow but never today

The daily polls suggest somehow, UKIP are the third party now,
E7 A
in the euro elections we were so immersed, we weren't the third party we were the first
Chorus:
A E
Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,
E7 A
we can trade with the world again, when Nigel is at No. 10.
A E
With the government sitting on the fence, Ukip policy makes more sense,
E7 A
to get out of Europe is our target, Commonwealth not common market.
A E
Other parties please take note, Ukip is not a protest vote,
E E7 A
so mark your cross and by word of mouth, tell them what to do in Thanet South.
Chorus:
A E
Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,
E7 A

A E
With the EU we must be on our mettle, want to change our lawnmowers and our kettles,
E7 A
our hairdryers, smart phones and vacuum cleaners, but Ukip is wise to their misdemeanours.
A E
Farage he likes his fags and beer, but there's one thing I want to get clear,
now I like Nigel, he’s a friend of mine,
E7 A
but he appears more than Dimbleby on Question Time.
Chorus:
A E
Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,
E7 A
we can trade with the world again, when Nigel is at No. 10.
A E
The other parties will count the cost, in Eastleigh, Thanet, Thurrock and Boston,
E7 A
Labour and Tories shaking in their boots, when Ukip kick them up the grass roots.
A E
Meanwhile down at Clacton-on-Sea, Ukip are making history,
E7 A
Douglas Carswell, we're quite adamant, will be the first MP in parliament.
Chorus:
A E
Oh yes, when we take charge, and the new prime minister is Farage,
E7 A
we can trade with the world again, when Nigel is at No. 10
