[Verse 1]
C Am
I woke up this morning, my temperature high (buy, buy, buy),
C Am
"I'll never buy nothing again, " I lied (buy, buy, buy).
C Am
My doctor he told me to stay out of town (buy, buy, buy),
C Am
he said, "affluenza will get you down" (buy, buy, buy).
[Chorus]
C Am
What did you do in the war, dad? What did you do in the war?
C* F* G* C*
Ring up the tills in the High Street, I'm not coming in anymore.
[Interlude]
| C | Am | C | Am |
[Verse 2]
C Am
There's a price tag on me and there's sick on the floor (buy, buy, buy),
C Am
we're buying up anything we can't afford (buy, buy, buy).
C Am
Wherever I go, I keep hearing this voice (buy, buy, buy),
C Am
saying "choose what you want" but there's so little choice (buy, buy, buy)
[Chorus]
C Am
What did you do in the war, dad? What did you do in the war?
C* F* G* C*
Ring up the tills in the High Street, I'm not coming in anymore.
[Interlude]
| C | Am | C* F* | G* C* |
| C | Am | C | Am |
| C | Am | C | Am |
Give it a rest
| C | Am | C | Am |
[Verse 3]
C Am
There's dumb moves behind me and bad debts above (buy, buy, buy),
C Am
I pawned my affections and still got no love (buy, buy, buy).
C Am
My heart and my pocket will say it's unfair (buy, buy, buy),
C Am
I'm unlearning the cost of this laissez-faire (buy, buy, buy).
[End-Chorus]
C Am
What did you do in the war, dad? What did you do in the war?
C* F* G* C*
Ring up the tills in the High Street, I'm not coming in anymore.
C Am
What did you do in the war, dad? What did you do in the war?
C* F* G* C*
Ring up the tills in the High Street, I'm not coming in anymore.
