Somewhere To Go

I hear the sound of bells & sirens

Wired alarmed & face to face

Intruded in exclusion zone

Looking for a sleeping place

Locks & clocks & iron bars

Barking dogs, securicars

Electric lights & concrete grass

Getting scared to even ask

Somewhere to go -- Without being arrested

Somewhere to go -- Without being scared

Somewhere to go -- Without being questioned

Somewhere to go -- Where somebody cares

Put on screen to serve the public

Here's the problem now drop the subject

Asked some questions un-requested

Next day quietly arrested

A token trials to stop the rumours

Hordes of desperate non-consumers

In a rush to beat the systematic

Silencing of their existence

Somewhere to go -- Without being arrested

Somewhere to go -- Without being scared

Somewhere to go -- Without being questioned

Somewhere to go -- Where somebody cares

And they bought in all their cameras

And they made a film about us

About my friends and all their problems

And now we're on the television

They made a documentary

Showed it late night on T.V.

Raising audience figures

For the regular advertisers

The public conscience shivered

Then turned the T.V. over

This is homelessness delivered

Too close to home

Somewhere to go -- Without being arrested

Somewhere to go -- Without being scared

Somewhere to go -- Without being questioned

Somewhere to go -- Where somebody cares

Somewhere to go -- Somewhere to go

Somewhere to go -- Somewhere to go

Somewhere to go -- Somewhere to go

Somewhere to go -- Somewhere to go
