《Plenty for the Few》歌词

[00:00:10] I sleep in a storefront doorway

[00:00:15] You can see me everywhere

[00:00:19] As I hold my hand out for money

[00:00:24] No-body seems to care

[00:00:29] They don't want to know my story

[00:00:33] They've heard it all before

[00:00:37] I'm just another beggar on the street

[00:00:42] Who always asks for more

[00:00:48] Let me lie down in green pastures

[00:00:52] Let me gaze upon the stars

[00:00:56] Let me wake to the sound of birdsong

[00:01:01] And the playing of guitars

[00:01:05] Let me roll in the arms of someone

[00:01:08] Whose smile is the light of dawn

[00:01:12] And I will lay me down in peace at last

[00:01:17] To a new day being born

[00:01:30] My body's thin and dirty

[00:01:34] And I'm shaking from the cold

[00:01:38] There's no way out but further down

[00:01:42] And I'll die before I'm old

[00:01:46] Do not worry, keep on walking

[00:01:50] You can turn the other way

[00:01:54] I'm not in the mood for talking

[00:01:58] And I've nothing left to say

[00:02:05] Let me lie down in green pastures

[00:02:09] Let me gaze upon the stars

[00:02:13] Let me wake to the sound of birdsong

[00:02:17] And the playing of guitars

[00:02:21] Let me roll in the arms of someone

[00:02:24] Whose smile is the light of dawn

[00:02:29] And I will lay me down in peace at last

[00:02:32] To a new day being born

[00:03:10] In this brutal land of plenty

[00:03:14] It's only plenty for the few

[00:03:18] And my pocket's always empty

[00:03:22] And there's nothing I can do

[00:03:26] Nothing for the needy

[00:03:30] And only pity for the poor

[00:03:34] I'm still sleeping in a doorway

[00:03:37] And I can't take it anymore

[00:03:44] Let me lie down in green pastures

[00:03:48] Let me gaze upon the stars

[00:03:52] Let me wake to the sound of birdsong

[00:03:56] And the playing of guitars

[00:04:00] Let me roll in the arms of someone

[00:04:04] Whose smile is the light of dawn

[00:04:08] And I will lay me down in peace at last

[00:04:13] To a new day being born

[00:04:18] Lay me down in peace at last

[00:04:22] To a new day being born
