Outside of A Small Circle Of Friends Phil Ochs

(Off the album "Pleasures of the Harbor")

Look outside my window, there's a woman being grabbed

Thay've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed.

Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain

But Monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game

And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody,

Outside of a small circle of friends

Driving down the highway, yes, my back is getting stiff

Thirteen cars are piled up, hanging off a cliff

Now maybe we should pull them back with our towing chain

But we're on the move and we might get sued and it looks like it's gonna rain

And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody,

Outside of a small circle of friends

Sweating in the ghetto with the colored and the poor

The rats enjoy the babies who are sleeping on the floor

Now wouldn't it be a riot if they really blew their tops

But they got too much already and besides, we've got the cops

And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody,

Outside of a small circle of friends

There's a dirty paper using sex to make a sale

The Supreme Court was so upset they sent him off to jail

Maybe we should help the pain and take away his fine

But we're busy reading Playboy and the New York Times

And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody,

Outside of a small circle of friends

Smokin marijuana is more fun than drinking beer

But a friend of ours was captured and they gave him thirty years

Maybe we should raise our voices, ask somebody why

But demonstrations are a drag, besides, we're much too high

And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody,

Outside of a small circle of friends

Look outside my window, there's a woman being grabbed

Thay've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed.

Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain

But Monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game

And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody,

Outside of a small circle of friends
