Rez Band - 80,000 Underground lyrics

rate me

Bones beneath the shovel's blade

That's what the radio said

Years ago a pay-off made

Build a mall on top of the dead

80,000 Undergound

80,000 not a sound

80,000 nameless souls

Brothers, sisters of us all

A mother in her cotton dress

A little baby taken in distress

A hobo with a kindly face

There was a daughter of a southern slave

Bulging wallets, empty hearts

The walking dead push shopping carts

What price human dignity?

Betrayed because of poverty
