Citizen Fish - Invisible People lyrics

anonymous people with anonymous jobs/hurry past for fear of being late for

the boss/both will say it's not the way I intended to be/knowing that the

other guy has all he could need/the homeless have got all the time and all

of it to share/the workers have got all the cash and none of it to spare/

invisible people with invisible feet/taxi cab potential knowing every street/

anonymous people with anonymous cars/rolling up the winddows as they drive on

past/if these wree all your relatives then which one would you feed?/would the

power you get from money dissappear if it was free?/isn't it therefore obvious

that in this society/there's poverty and hunger due to other people's greed/

invisible people from invisible homes/lost the job their rent went up out on

their own/anonymous people with anonymous lives/reliant on superiors to keep

them alive/cos when it comes right down to it the structure is the same/

control requires acceptance that you have to play the game/the power of money

trickles down decreasing as it goes/and out there in the rain it would be used

on food and clothes/but social guilt the barrier to giving what is gained/to

those who have less of it, cuts the last link in the chain/invisibility comes

from being constantly in view/ignorance is the passive stance of saying it

can't be true/reality shapes itself around perceptions of the self/until we

really need it we refuse to offer help/the state that creats homelessness

thrives on this attitude/until we smash these limitations and take a wider

view
