Incognito - People At The Top lyrics

rate me

(J.P.Maunick / D. Oakenfull)

She's lookin' for a way out of this hole

She's out on her own, with hungry mouths to feed

The precious little she scratches on the dole

Is barely enough to cover all their needs

It hurts to see her once strong frame

Broken down, by the constant blows of rejection

And now in place of the sweetest smile

She wears a frown, of worry and dejection

Oh it's a cold, cold world

[that turns it's back on you]

When you're cryin out for a little love

A little love and understandin'

Chorus:

People at the top looking down

They don't wanna know whose at the back of the line

People at the top looking down

Can't relate to our troubled minds

People at the top looking down

People at the top

She's all caught up in these inner city blues

Out of control, she's losin' her mind

Her story's told but it's second hand news

To a world without care, they've heard it all before

Tryin' to do the best she can

But she's losin' faith in all that she believes in

The light is fading and hope is dissipatin'

They say that they listen, Lord knows that they don't hear

Oh, it's a cold, cold world [that turns it's back on you]

When you're cryin out for a little love

A little love and understandin'

Repeat Chorus
