ORIGINAL LYRICS:

There's colors on the street - Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet - People sleepin' in their shoes

But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead - There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them - So I try to forget it, any way I can.

I see a woman in the night - With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light - Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit - She hates her life, and what she's done to it
There's one more kid that will never go to school - Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool.

We got a thousand points of light - For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler, Machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper - Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive - Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive.
