Urban Refugee
[Verse 1]
Living here in immobile space
I've no reason to join the race
Feel forgotten and cast aside
Words can’t bandage my wounded pride
Sometimes I feel as if I‘m a refugee
[Verse 2]
Money's tight things are really tough
Fun is scarce there's just not enough
Now everyone’s going through hard times
But it's worse when you're last in line
[Refrain]
Sometimes I feel as if I'm a refugee
You know sometimes I feel as if I'm a refugee
[Interlude]
Ah-la-la-la-la-la
Ah-la-la-la-la-ya
Ah-ya-la-la-la-la
Ah-la-la-la-ya
[Verse 3]
Apathy has opened school
What we thought of as exceptions
Have now become the rule
The voice of reason screaming loud
But no-one wants to hear
Oh no
Hope is leaving here
[Verse 4]
Now those defended by no-one else
Just end up fighting amongst themselves
We're encouraged to sit things out
But food for thought won't fill hungry mouths
Sometimes I feel as if I'm a refugee
Life’s not good for me
Oh no no good for me
[Verse 5]
People say that it’s no go here
Well is that why our lives go nowhere
Sometimes I feel as if I'm a refugee
You know sometimes I feel as if I’m a refugee
Oh no oh no
[Verse 6]
Trouble's following me around
Everywhere I go everywhere I turn
Oh no life's been bad to me
My hopes and dreams are just crumbling down
They say things will get better
But why not now
Why
