Beat the Street

Nothing to do Nothing to eat Nowhere to sleep Nowhere to go Watch out for the Snappers at your feet The ants and rats Have all the same meat Rumbling tram will break Will break your sleep Unlike the park Where the rapists meet To find a shelter is such a feat Much like the task of making ends meet How did I get here and why do I creep There is a bridge my final leap I beat the street I beat the street I beat the street I beat the street Nothing to do Nothing to eat Nowhere to sleep Nowhere to go Watch out for the Snappers at your feet The ants and rats Have all the same meat Rumbling tram will break Will break your sleep Unlike the park Where the rapists meet Where are my children The seeds that I reaped Stolen and caged for all to weep But no one cries not even a peep Since no one cares I beat the street I beat the street I beat the street I beat the street I beat the street
