Can you hear the cries as they ring out
From the homeless and the poor
Of course not you don't know how
As you close an open door
Their lives are a constant struggle
As you give your self a raise
And drive around in fancy cars
As if everything's OK
As you sleep in your nice warm bed
Just stop and think about
The ones who sleep in cardboard huts
And have to do without
You make me duck my head in shame
To think we do this to our own
They have to sit and do without
As You sit in your fancy home
