(capo 2nd fret)

Am
We stand together, we shall not be defeated

E7                               Am
We're united forever, though our numbers are depleted.

    G
For generations we have stood

C
Throughout the bad, throughout the good

D7                                     G7
Although we've witnessed many brothers die


C
We are the nought point nought one percent

     F               C
That Domestos cannot kill

        G
You can spray, you can scrub

          C
But we'll stay in your tub

    D7                      G7
And tomorrow we'll be here still… Yes!

C
We are the nought point nought one percent

       F            E7
And we shall not be ignored

             Dm            G
Though we're only terribly small

        C                   A7
You can never get rid of us all

          Dm       G      C
And we'll stay til we get bored


       E7
Oh the horrors we have seen

        Am
In your foul attempts to clean

       E7                                          Am      
All my children and their friends from school have died

       G
If you only stopped to think

             C
While you're cleaning out the sink

          D7                          G7
You would realise you commit mass germicide


    C
But we are the nought point nought one percent

        F               C
Where Domestos can't succeed

       G 
We are strong and we're great

       C
For we spread and mutate

    D7                      G7
And evolve with frightening speed

C
We are the nought point nought one percent

            F               E7
And there's nothing you can do

          Dm            G
Wash your hands all you like

        C           A7
But one day we will strike

    Dm     G7      C
And do the same to you
