G                       C             G/B Am
Take all your overgrown infants away, somewhere,
                  D              A#+           Bm  A/C#
And build them a home, a little place of their own
D    Em                C                  D     Em7 D/F# G   C
The Fletcher Memorial Home for incurable tyrants    and kings.
     G                      C             G/B Am
And they can appear to themselves every day,
                    D           A#+                Bm A/B Bm
On closed circuit T.V. to make sure they're still real
C                 D            Em
It's the only connection they feel

                                      Cmaj7
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Reagan and Haig,
                             D
Mr. Begin and friend, Mrs. Thatcher and Paisley,
    Cmaj7
Mr. Brezhnev and party, the ghost of McCarthy,
                            D
The memories of Nixon. And now adding colour,
    G                 D/F#                C
A group of anonymous Latin-American meat packing glitterati

Em                                            D
Did they expect us to treat them with any respect?
          G            D/F#        C
They can polish their medals and sharpen their smiles,
      G            D/F#       C
And amuse themselves playing games for a while
G        D/F#         C                Em
Boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead

 G                     C              G/B  Am
Safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye,
                     D                A#+            Bm
With their favorite toys, they'll be good girls and boys
A/C#  D  Em                C
In  the Fletcher Memorial Home for
          D          Em7 D/F# G
colonial wasters of life and limb
   D/F#        C         G     D/F#    C
Is everyone in? Are you having a nice time?
        D/F#     C               Em
Now the final solution can be applied
