Green Collar
Words and Music: j. scarpelli, t. smyth
Sign in the hands of a homeless man says “I’m just hungry”
I think, “that’s funny… cause I feel hungry too.”
I go to work
I’ve got money
I do drugs
And I’m not lonely
But these things still leave me aching
But I’m too ashamed to beg for what I’m making…
Maybe I’ll get rich
But that’s so bullshit
So I’ll maybe buy some time
To draw a sign sayin’ “help me”
So I put on a green collared work shirt
But I don’t feel clean I just need to sleep
But I keep tossing and turning
And the dream just brings morning
I go to work
I’ve got money
I do drugs
And I’m not lonely
But these things still leave me aching
But I’m too ashamed to beg for what I’m making…
