G Am

People say it doesn't exist

C

'Cause no one would like to admit

G

That there is a city underground

Am

Where people live everyday

C

Off the waste and decay

G

Off the discards of their fellow man

CHORUS:

G Am C

Here in subcity life is hard

G Am D

We can't receive any government relief

G Am C

I'd like to please give Mr. President my honest regards

D G

For disregarding me

They say there's too much crime in these city streets

My sentiments exactly

Government and big business hold the purse strings

When I worked I worked in the factories

I'm at the mercy of the world

I guess I'm lucky to be alive

Am

They say we've fallen through the cracks

G

They say the system works

But we won't let it

C

Help

I guess they never stop to think

G

We might not just want handouts

Am

But a way to make an honest living

G

Living this ain't living

What did I do deserve this

Had my trust in god

Worked everyday of my life

Thought I had some guarantees

That's what I thought

At least that's what I thought

Last night I had another restless sleep

Wondering what tomorrow might bring

Last night I dreamed

A cold blue light was shining down on me

I screamed myself awake

Thought I must be dying

Thought I must be dying
