Someone Is Me

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
There's aluminium cans an' cigarette buttsLyin' in the sides of streetBaseball field in the county parkBuried in a blanket of weeds.There's a swastika sprayed from an aerosol canDisplayed on the overpassDrivin' around, it's easy to seeThis town's goin' down real fast.Somebody should do somethin' about itHow hard could it be?Somebody should do somethin' about itMaybe that someone is me.Followed a couple into Ferguson's GrilleThe doors swung back in my faceClosed my eyes but I felt the staresWhen I bowed my head to say grace.Watched the table of suits stiff the waitress a tipLike they didn't have a nickel to spareWalked out in the heat risin' on Main StreetBut I felt the chill in the air.Somebody should do somethin' about it(Somebody, somebody)How hard could it be?Somebody should do somethin' about it(Somebody, somebody.)Maybe that someone is me.I don't expect this world to be HeavenBut it sure could be betterI could sit around bitchin'; stand around waitin'But I might be waitin' forever.(Forever, forever.)Somebody should do somethin' about it(Somebody, somebody)How hard could it be?Somebody should do somethin' about it(Somebody, somebody.)Maybe that someone is me...
