about

Homelessness is not a lifestyle choice.

lyrics

I used to really love you
But I've just won a million pounds
Though that's not much these days it doesn't pain me to say
I can afford to have better things than you around

So you're for the chop dear
You've a few days to clear your gear
I know it doesn't seem fair but I don't really care
Moan as much as you like but do it elsewhere

I'll do you one last favour
And have that mangy cat of yours put down
It'll be kinder that way now you've no where to stay
So sling your hook and be on your way

Through the rain and snow, the rain and snow
You've got no home nowhere to go
Lost, alone, afraid, aground
If no one's looking you can't be found
Faceless in your own home town

It's not that you're forgotten
Now I'm a millionaire
But I'm told that with wealth you keep it all for yourself
And one day it somehow gets to trickle down

Like the urine from a wino
Or the water seeping through your shoes
This is what we're coming to
Where people beg for luxuries like food

In the rain and snow, the rain and snow
You've got no home nowhere to go
It's one way to keep the numbers down
Hunger, exposure, or disease
The homeless die faster living on the streets
