(repeats)

(with intro riff)
Inflammable material is planted in my head
It's a suspect device that's left 2000 dead

B
Their soluutions are our problems
A	 E      B
They put up the wall

On each side time and prime us
A                E           D   A  E   D  A  E
And make sure we get fuck[*] all
B
They play their games of power
A            E        B
They cut and mark the pack
B
They deal us to the bottom
A           E        D    A  E  D  A  E
But what do they put back?

CHORUS
        E
Don't believe them

Don't believe them
B        A      E
Don't be bitten twice

You gotta suss, suss, suss, suss, suss, out,
B       A      E
Suss suspect device

They take away our freedom
In the name of liberty
Why don't they all just clear off
Why won't they let us be

They make us feel indebted
For saving us from hell
And then they put us through it
It's time the bastards fell

(Chorus)

A  G  E    A  G  E

Don't believe them

Don't believe them
             B             A            E
(I tell you) Question everything you're told
B
Just take a look around you
A            E        B
At the bitterness and spite

Why can't we take over
A          E      D     A  E    D A E
And try to put it right

Don't believe us
Don't believe us
Don't be bitten twice
You gotta suss, suss, suss, suss, suss, suss,
Suss suspect device

(with intro riff)
We're a suspect device if we do what we are told
But a suspect device can score an own goal
I'm a suspect device the Army can't defuse
You're a suspect device they know they can't refuse
We're gonna blow up in their face

[*]the publicly released version says '...sod all' here.
