BRIDGE: (In Kate Nash's live version all she is playing is on A. Which is a G on capo
This part is mostly drums... So just play a G through this whole part.)
'Cause sometimes at night,
I dream of the most terrible things
I take a hammer and I creep out of bed
And I raise it high
And I smash your head
Fibular and tubular
And ribs and cages, too
In fact, while I'm here
I'll smash the whole of you
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah............ (etc)
Smaaaaaaaaaaash !

And t[Em]hat is all I know[D], k[C]now[G]
