Shelter — текст песни (Boo Radleys, The)

I remember at school there was always some fool
teaching us about the past
Pictures of kids, starving, eating out of bins
Man we all had to laugh
It`s hard to believe we were told with relief
It couldn`t happen now of course
It`s easy to expound with your head in the ground
I`ve since learnt that and more

What is there to do I`m allright so are you
but outside there are TB streets
You can cry a lot say Ў®Oh! my God!`
but as an action it is incomplete
put money in the hands of those who understand
Give shelter of the roofless heads
It`s hard to deny when you open your eyes
and listen to yourself instead

And you`ll think you`ve gone crazy
but you hope it will pass
It`s a sickening feeling maybe it won`t last
It shouldn`t be happening at this point in time
With these houses standing empty
