Cardboard City (贫民区) (Live) - Skyclad/Dennis Stratton[00:00:00]

Hands locked in darkness a nocturnal greeting[00:00:24]

We flutter like moths round the brazier's flame[00:00:29]

Shrouded in shadow our clandestine meeting[00:00:35]

Here where past and present are one and the same[00:00:40]

No one dies in Cardboard City[00:00:45]

Faces only fade away[00:00:48]

Eat your pride and take their pity[00:00:50]

Fight to live another day[00:00:53]

And did those feet in ancient times[00:00:56]

Walk bare upon these lonely streets like mine[00:01:01]

Does God that watch us from penthouse high above[00:01:07]

His children down below who live on air and love[00:01:12]

Wrapped in old headlines beneath this shop awning[00:01:18]

I shiver in silence and wait for the morning[00:01:23]

No one cries in Cardboard City[00:01:29]

Faces only fade away[00:01:31]

Eat your pride and take their pity[00:01:34]

Fight to live another day[00:01:36]

No one cries in Cardboard City[00:01:39]

That would be a waste of tears[00:01:42]

Eat your pride and take their pity[00:01:44]

Like you have so many years[00:01:47]

Youth of our nation a lost generation[00:02:46]

Like lepers we march to the chimes of big ben[00:02:51]

Exiled and rejected by powers elected[00:02:56]

Our cries from the gutter don't reach number ten[00:03:01]

Give us this day our daily bread[00:03:07]

Before the headlines read bring out your dead[00:03:12]

Chip wrapper flowers are blown onto this cardboard grave[00:03:17]

My spray paint epitaph upon the wall it says[00:03:23]

Here lie the bones of some poor homeless vagrant[00:03:29]

He died as he lived in the sh*ts on the pavement[00:03:34]

No one dies in Cardboard City[00:03:39]

Faces only fade away[00:03:42]

Eat your pride and take their pity[00:03:44]

Fight to live another day[00:03:47]

No one cries in Cardboard City[00:03:49]

That would be a waste of tears[00:03:52]

Eat your pride and take their pity[00:03:55]

Like you have so many years[00:03:57]
