We are the people you meet, 

we're standing right on the street, 

These are the shoes on our feet,

and every night we must eat but poverty keeps us down

Necessities all around.

we have to shop the lost and found

And everyday you pass me by, 

Point and stare give me the eye

and grab on tightly to your children and your wife

you're just like me except that you

don't need booze to get you through

all the shit that plagues my mind and my life



We are the people of the street 

we have no money to speak

Everything that you think is weak 

we should be shinning your feet 

We have to sleep on the ground

at night we wander the town

we shouldn't even make a sound 

GO!!! 



Sometimes we sleep in the sand, 

we always eat with our hands

the trash that you throw in cans

that's how we eat off the land

there's not a day that goes by

that we don't break down and cry

I have to try I wonder why

because the man just keeps you done

shut your mouth don't make a sound

you dirty bum your just a clown

in my eyes get a job you lazy slob

and don't bother me and rob 

other people of the change of your lines 



We are the people of the street

GO!!!
