Jennie lost her job on labour day
She looks so disconnected but she's really afraid
Ma-ma-monies gonna fade away
She says oooh
ooh
oh,
what
a
crying
shame
Louie's on the corner reading resumes
He found them in alley by the fire escape
The letter in his pocket it says ?anything?
Oooh ooh oh, what a crying shame
Don't give me your hand
(Don't give me your hand)
As an alibi
You call me misery
I call you civilized
No use in talkin to me
What a crying shame
Martha watches movie shows on the television
She says she's into justice but she's really afraid
Sometimes its a dollar for the man outside the mission
She says Oooh
ooh
oh,
what
a
crying
shame
Here I stand
Memorizing zeroes
Staring at the ivory glass
Behind the hurricane
One gold coin in the bottom
Lost and lonely
Maybe its a treasure
Maybe its ?ugly?
But maybe its a symbol of me
Woooh ooh oh what a crying
Woooh ooh oh what a crying
Woooh ooh oh what a crying shame
Don't give me your hand
(Don't give me your hand)
As an alibi
You call me misery
I call you civilized
No use in talkin to me
What a crying shame
Sometimes its a dollar for the man outside the mission
Sometimes its a fleeting note of social decay
Most of the time its just peripheral vision
Oooh ooh oh, what a crying shame
Don't give me your hand
(Don't give me your hand)
As an alibi
You call me misery
I call you civilized
No use in talkin to me
What a crying shame
Well don't give me your hand
(Don't give me your hand)
As an alibi
You call me misery
I call you civilized
No use in talkin to me
What a crying shame
