Am
Its said that men look cool and hard

When their faces are all bruised and scarred

Not like some badly drawn cartoom
F E
Of a kid who swallowed a balloon
Am
I looked into a telescope
E
The victim of a schoolboy joke
G
I dont care what people say
F E
Thats how I looked that day
Am
Now every where I go Its changed
E
Places that I know seem strange
G
Every park or patch of green

An ugly crimescene photograph

Sometghing deep inside me changed

(Verse 2)
Am
A victim of a so so crime
E
No worthy of a yellow sign
G
To match the bruise around my neck
F E
Changing colour as i slept
Am
Now there's a part of me that shakes
E
With every car that overtakes
G
The Jeremeiah in my head says
F E
'Everybody wants me dead'
Am
Like the audience at the pantomime he
E
Tells me I should look behind me
G
Says that should run and hide
F E
Move out to the countryside
Am
Just get yourself away from harm
E
Sell the far buy a farm

Things would never be the same

Everyone I knew was sure
E
That I should report it to the law
G
I'd get financial compansation
F E
If I went to my local station
Am
But because of cutbacks staff were short
E
And since what happened in New York
G
The police station I told my friends
F E
Only opens at weekends
(Verse 4 ) - Faster
Am
So in the year Charles Bronson died
E
I got my bad self organised
G
I bought a book on marshall arts
F E
And enrolled in a karate class and
Am
I wish someday a rain would come
E
And wash the steets of all the scum
G
Everybody say that I've changed

Unprovolked and unreported
