Lyrics
Angry Young And Poor
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He knows he'll be alone tonight
While contemplating: What can I do?
Lack of hope leaves him feeling violent
Its not that he's looking for a fight, it's just
He don't know where to turn
More stress than help, from home and school
And on the streets his life's out of control
Angry Young and Poor
Angry Young and Pissed
Angry and no one cares
She never even had a chance
Mental, sexual, physical violence
Not once she heard an encouraging word
Just the phrase: You better shut up! And: You're going nowhere!
Her sad stories, all left untold
And so her life became something, so out of control
Angry Young and Poor
Angry Young and Pissed
Angry and no one cares
Don't know where to turn
Don't know what to do
Politicians talk it up, about their love, for the USA's youth
But when it comes time to put up, their rhetoric falls back onevery excuse
Every excuse, every excuse
