[Intro:]
2
Devlin:
3
And this one's for all the characters that have been forgotten at the present time...
4
[Verse:]
5
I represent for the jobless
6
That have been made redundant
7
That have four kids
8
And don't know how to fund them.
9
Ever since the wife and husband
10
Both lost their jobs at the office in london
11
Now they feel financially trapped
12
Now are locked with rats in a dindgy old dungeon.
13
Take this young father of two
14
Signing on and the the government
15
Says that his family are spongers.
16
He's like "damn man
17
We aint got a penny or a pound
18
Let alone money for milk
19
And nappies and trainers and jumpers"
20
He got taken off site cause it's cheaper
21
To pay Europeans to labour in numbers
22
Hows he gonna take care of his youngers...
23
[Chorus:]
24
I represent to the people
25
Let down by a nation
26
And left on the streets where it's evil
27
Little kids surrounded by knives and heroin needls
28
I represent to the people
29
Let down by a nation
30
And left on the streets where it's evil
31
Community outcast cold, tired and feeble
32
[Verse 2:]
33
I represent for the homeless,
34
Let down by a nation,
35
More interested in war and invasion,
36
When children are sleeping at railway stations.
37
No home or money,
38
They wish they can phone their mummy
39
To put a whole meal in their tummy,
40
So at night when the temperature drops,
41
I'm asking you, remember what you got,
42
These kids go home to a cardboard box,
43
They're the soul survivors,
44
Warming their hands with a flickering flame of their lighters,
45
All their life they've been frightened.
46
Walk the streets with their head down,
47
Knowing deep inside that they've really been let down,
48
By a country that's crippled,
49
And I thought mankind was supposed to be civil.
50
I represent to the people,
51
Let down by a nation,
52
And left in the streets where it's evil,
53
Little kids surrounded by knives and heroin needles.
54
I represent to the people,
55
Let down by a nation,
56
And left on the streets where it's evil,
57
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble.
58
I represent single Mums,
59
All alone on their own trying to put food in the mouths of her two sons,
60
And the fathers gone, there's no cash flow, lack of income,
61
But that's just the way it is,
62
She counts fifteen needles pushing her pram on the way to the lift,
63
And this is where brown said it's safe to live and raise kids.
64
She finds her way out of the block,
65
With two kids in a pram and a rip and a stain in her top,
66
She goes to sign on just to maintain the little she's got,
67
For her kids sake,
68
They'll never see a decent life,
69
But they can dream and they'll sleep tonight,
70
They've been hung out and left to dry,
71
The kids are in bed, Mums left to cry.
72
I represent to the people,
73
Let down by a nation,
74
And left in the streets where it's evil,
75
Little kids surrounded by knives and heroin needles.
76
I represent to the people,
77
Let down by a nation,
78
And left on the streets where it's evil,
79
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble.
80
I represent for the old folk, that live alone,
81
No family or kids at home,
82
And all he wants is someone to speak to but nobody thinks to phone.
83
Sits at home in the dark, no electric,
84
Since his wife passed, he can't accept it,
85
He feels isolated, neglected,
86
And now his council flats infested,
87
So he goes to the shop for his papers,
88
With a stick and he falls in the mud,
89
The people around him all pulled him up,
90
But to him that's just a reminder,
91
He's old and he's weak with no one to love.
92
I see clouds up above,
93
Another bad day in the diary,
94
An old man one of many,
95
Killed by society, strangled quietly.
96
I represent to the people,
97
Let down by a nation,
98
And left in the streets where it's evil,
99
Little kids surrounded by knives and heroin needles.
100
I represent to the people,
101
Let down by a nation,
102
And left on the streets where it's evil,
103
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble.
104
I represent to the people,
105
Let down by a nation,
106
And left in the streets where it's evil,
107
Little kids surrounded by knives and heroin needles.
108
I represent to the people,
109
Let down by a nation,
110
And left on the streets where it's evil,
111
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble.
