What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Devlin, community outcast
2
And this one's for all the characters
3
That have been forgotten at the present time
4
I represent for the jobless
5
That have been made redundant
6
That have got four kids
7
And don't know how to fund them
8
Ever since the wife and the husband
9
Both lost their jobs at the office in London
10
Now they feel financially trapped
11
Now are locked with the rats in a dingy old dungeon
12
Take this young father of two
13
Signing on and the government
14
Says that his family are spongers
15
He's like, "Damn man
16
We ain't got a penny or a pound"
17
Let alone money for milk
18
And nappies and trainers and jumpers
19
He got taken off site 'cause it's cheaper
20
To pay Europeans to labor in numbers
21
How's he gonna take care of his younger's
22
I represent for the people
23
Let down by a nation
24
And left in the streets where it's evil
25
Little kids surrounded
26
By knives and heroin needles
27
I represent for the people
28
Let down by a nation
29
And left on the streets where it's evil
30
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble
31
I represent for the homeless
32
Let down by a nation
33
More interested in war and invasion
34
When children are sleeping at railway stations
35
No home or money
36
They wish they could phone their mummy
37
To put a hot meal in their tummy
38
So at night when the temperature drops
39
I'm asking you remember what you got
40
These kids go home to a cardboard box
41
They're the soul survivors
42
Warming their hands
43
With their flickering flame of their lighters
44
All their life they've been frightened
45
On the streets with their head down
46
Knowing deep down inside
47
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 for the people
51
Let down by a nation
52
And left in the streets where it's evil
53
Little kids surrounded
54
By knives and heroin needles
55
I represent for the people
56
Let down by a nation
57
And left on the streets where it's evil
58
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble
59
I represent single mums, all alone on their own
60
Tying to put food in the mouths of her two sons
61
And the fathers gone, there's no cash flow
62
Lack of income
63
But that's just the way it is
64
She counts fifteen needles
65
Pushing her pram on the way to the lift
66
And this is where Brown said
67
It's safe to live and raise kids
68
She finds her way out of the block
69
With two kids in a pram
70
And a rip and a stain in her top
71
She goes to sign on
72
Just to maintain the little she's got
73
For her kids sake
74
They'll never seen a decent life
75
But they can dream and they'll sleep tonight
76
They've been hung out and left to dry
77
The kids are in bed, mums left to cry
78
I represent for the people
79
Let down by a nation
80
And left in the streets where it's evil
81
Little kids surrounded
82
By knives and heroin needles
83
I represent for the people
84
Let down by a nation
85
And left on the streets where it's evil
86
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble
87
I represent for the old folk that live alone
88
No family or kids at home
89
And all he wants is someone to speak to
90
But nobody thinks to phone
91
Sits at home in the dark, no electric
92
Since his wife passed, he can't accept it
93
He feels isolated, neglected
94
And now his council flats infested
95
So he goes to the shop for his papers
96
With his stick and he falls in the mud
97
The people around him all pulled him up
98
But to him that's just a reminder
99
He's old and he's weak with no one to love
100
I sees clouds up above
101
Another bad day in the diary
102
An old man one of many
103
Killed by society, strangled quietly
104
I represent for the people
105
Let down by a nation
106
And left in the streets where it's evil
107
Little kids surrounded
108
By knives and heroin needles
109
I represent for the people
110
Let down by a nation
111
And left on the streets where it's evil
112
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble
113
I represent for the people
114
Let down by a nation
115
And left in the streets where it's evil
116
Little kids surrounded
117
By knives and heroin needles
118
I represent for the people
119
Let down by a nation
120
And left on the streets where it's evil
121
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble
