when a man is running from his boss who holds a gun that fires “cost”
E Am D : E
and people die from being old or left alone because they’re cold

and bombs are dropped on fighting

cats and children’s dreams are run with rats
E Am D E
if you complain you disappear just like the lesbians and queers

no one can love without the grace of some unseen and distant face
E E E E Am Am D E
and you get beaten up by blacks who though they work still got the sack
E E E E Am Am D E
and when your soul tells you to hide your very right to die’s denied
E E E E Am Am D E
and in the battle on the streets you fight computers and receipts
E E E E : Am Am D E
and when a man is trying to change it only causes further pain
