Humanifesto - On The Streets lyrics

rate me

There's a kid crying on the street, <br />

His hands are dirty and his clothes are worn.<br />

The rocks dig in to his shoeless feet, <br />

And the passersby look at him with disdain and scorn.<br />

<br />

Welcome to the future, beautiful, shining bright.<br />

Economic prowess brings meaning to our lives.<br />

Our machines of profit neglect the cogs below<br />

Our bank accounts rise quickly, intelligence so slow.<br />

<br />

There's a man wiping spit off his face, <br />

The life on the street is not the one he had chose.<br />

His Harvard MbA now seems such a waste, <br />

He lost his job to robots, sometimes that's the way it goes.<br />

<br />

Welcome to the future, beautiful, shining bright.<br />

Economic prowess brings meaning to our lives.<br />

Our machines of profit neglect the cogs below<br />

Our bank accounts rise quickly, intelligence so slow.<br />

<br />

There's a kid dying on the street, <br />

His hands are bloody and his clothes are torn.<br />

Beaten by some other kids for scraps he had to eat.<br />

Another life is taken so soon after it's born.
