lyrics

I see you nodding your head as this woman complains
That it is such an outrage: she sees homeless every day.

She’s been talking so long, with no voices of dissent,
She thinks that she’s among friends, so she really opens up.
She blames the mayor, she says, and this neo-liberal wave
That built the shelter down the way: now she sees homeless every day.

We’re trying to have a moment,
Back it on up, watch the throne, quoth him.
I’m sputtering epithets here,
And I don’t need lessons in morality.
But how can you deny them,
When they are just victims of a broken system?
The money is calling,
Walking, talking, balling, brawling.

“Throw them in the ocean,” she says,
“Shape up or ship out.”

Don’t make eye contact.
Got to keep up the walls when under attack.
I know they’re out there,
All those hands, they have to end up somewhere,
And I’m willing to bet that they know where they’re going,
Out the windows with all those Kings’ gold bones.
