White Slum
(album: No Gettin´ Out)
There´s white slums down on Medford street
A fire hydrant on to beat the heat
A pit bull dog ´aint got no leash
On the corner where the kids all meet,
A junkie in the doorway that knows what he needs
A bottle of booze, and a bundle of weed
People look around but don´t like what they see
A white trash ghetto, but it´s home to me!
A broken window at the corner store
Boarded up tight with a lock on the door
A harbor view that resembles a sewer
Another day in the life of the poor
What are these people living their lives for?
But a dirnk and a fix and nothing more
I´m jealousof the rich down to the core
Pissed on, broke, now hear me roar!
The rich that live on the side of town
I head that way when I´m feelingdown
Feeling destructive burn it to the ground
Rip it to the floor, kill it pound by pound
I´m proud of my life, my work, my toen
´Aint nobody gunna bring me down
I may not have a throne or crown
But I love that dirty water and the shit on the ground
I love that dirty water and there ´aint no gettin´ out!
