Back on the Street |
They tell me I’ve paid back the debt I owed |
Forty-four months since the slammer door closed |
They give me a suit and put me back on the road |
And my thoughts are racing |
Where do I go? |
What am I supposed to live on? |
What happens when the twenty-five dollars is gone? |
That leaves me lots of time to wonder why I was born |
But the countdown is on Everybody’s dancing |
The music sounds entrancing |
But you can’t find the beat |
It’s the ticking of a thousand human time bombs |
Who are back on the street |
Oh the names have been changed |
But the story’s the same |
History will repeat |
Add it all up and then divide it by zero |
'Cause you’re back on the street |
I can’t stand the strain of this job no more |
I must have forgot what I took it on for |
I make lots of money, yet still I want more |
And my head is blazing |
I think that I’ll check out the shops downtown |
Sometimes it helps to buy things when I feel brought down |
At this hour I might dodge those hippie low-life's around |
But the countdown is on Once you had to stand out |
