lyrics

C G7
They'd sell your Nana there's no doubt,
F G7
They sold the Royal Mail out.
C G7
You can't trust a Tory cos they lie
C G7
They'll say it's for the deficit,
F G7
They mustn't get away with it!
F G C
You can't trust a Tory cos they lie

G7 C
Oh they lie, yes they lie
C F G7
You can't trust a Tory cos they lie
G7 C
Oh they lie, yes they lie
F G7 C
You can't trust a Tory cos they lie

C G7
They'd sell your shirt and Nan's false teeth
F G7
Then say a muslim was the thief
C G7
You can't trust a Tory cos they lie
C G7 F G7
There selling of the NHS, the trains, the schools and all thats left
F G7 C
You can't trust a Tory cos they lie

They'd sell the seas with little grief, first the bits with oil beneath.
They tax the poor and not the rich, they keep their undies in the fridge

Unused verses...

They'd sell you clean air if they could (they've tried to sell off all the woods)
They have lunch with their banker friends cos money is their only end

They demonise you if your poor. They lay the blame all at your door
They scapegoat all the immigrants, disabled, old, incontinent
