Send them table scraps we're leaving

Most spend there time, with useless meaning

A new clear day

The piper has a price that we pay

Am               Bm
Two faces in the south

The first one has a look of

With fine words in his mouth

As ghetto chimneys

What you gonna do?

To hide the shame,

You walk the line, of constant danger
