LYRICS BELOW - SILENT WITNESS
The neon haze of city lights
The tribal sound of marching feet
Cuts through the gloom on cold dark nights
The tired and homeless roam the streets

The sirens wail, engines roar
A shadowed man just glances around
A victim of life's mindless toil
Lies cold and helpless on the ground

The window dummies silent stare
Bears witness on the nights
If they could move, what it would proved
To see them all take flight

The neon haze of city lights
The tribal sound of marching feet
Cuts through the gloom on cold dark nights
The tired and homeless roam the streets

The walls shout loud with angry words
The people air their views
The poor can scream but no one hears
The concrete jungle sings the blues

The window dummies silent stare
Bears witness on the nights
If they could move, what it would proved
To see them all take flight

DONT DO THE CRIME
Don't do the crime if you can't do the time
It's said that it just don't pay
But what good's working hard, all they give you is your card
And you know there's not much you can say

So you take what they give, you've no money to live
And your family don't understand
After all these years, they will end up in tears
With a mountain of bills in their hand

Now your lesson is learned, there's nowhere to turn
It's no use pleading for help
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

The dilemma you've found is you're morally bound
Now your moral code, it needs a review
So what do you care, you know life isn't fair
And for years they've been stealing from you

Now your lesson is learned, there's nowhere to turn
It's no use pleading for help
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

The dilemma you've found is you're morally bound
Now your moral code, it needs a review
So what do you care, you know life isn't fair
And for years they've been stealing from you

Now your lesson is learned, there's nowhere to turn
It's no use pleading for help
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself
When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
From going and helping yourself

When you're left on the heap, there is nothing to keep you
