Times Beach Refused To Die

I hope someone can laugh

At my funeral

Some smiles on my behalf

A fun old burial

Don't need a headstone

I just need a home

A decent place

To lay my dome

Don't need a headstone

I just need a home

A decent place

To lay my bones

Who made us so damn poor?

I can't afford shit anymore

A heart for rent, a leg for food

Abject people so confused

Nobody knows what to do

But everyone knows how to shoot

Nobody knows just what to do

But everyone knows how to shoot

I don't need gemstones

I just need a home

A decent place

To call my own

I just wanna sleep

And I wanna eat

Why are these things

So hard to keep

I don't need gemstones

I just need a home

A dignified house where I'm alone

I just wanna sleep

And I wanna eat

Who took all

These rights from me

History says this is endtimes

And so does a man on the subway line

We're occupied from overseas

By moneyless banks and mental disease

Ridden genocidal maniacs

Parading at homes they hijacked

Your money keeps children under attack

Starin up under jet black

Your money keeps children under attack

Starin up under jet black

I don't need gemstones

I just need a home

A decent place

To call my own

I just wanna sleep

And I wanna eat

Why are these things

So hard to keep

I don't need gemstones

I just need a home

A dignified place where I'm alone

I just wanna sleep

And I wanna eat

Who took all

These rights from me

I don't need gemstones

I just need a home

A decent place

To call my own

I just wanna sleep

And I wanna eat

Why are these things

So hard to keep

I don't need gemstones

I just need a home

A dignified place where I'm alone

You don't have to be poor

It was never your choice

It was never your choice
