Lyrics
down here in shantytown the buck stops short just look around skin and bones strewn down the block the suit-clad swells don’t take no stock down here in shantytown down here in shantytown take a sip of the madness spend an hour on these walls churning river of sadness sweeps us over the falls down here in shantytown the unseen hand comes bearing down decrepit fenced up factories toll of adam smith’s philosophy down here in shantytown down here in shantytown take a sip of the madness spend an hour on these walls churning river of sadness sweeps us over the falls down here in shantytown worthless wretch sprawled out face down begging in the back alley spare change for liquid therapy down here in shantytown take a sip of the madness spend an hour on these walls churning river of sadness sweeps us over the falls
