Kids on the Street

Kids on the street
they get nothing to eat,
no place to sleep,
and they get beat.

Kids on the street,
they ask you for love,
and you give them a shove.

Kids on the street,
they ask you for a home,
and you leave them alone.

Kids on the street,
they ask you for a life,
and you stab them with a knife.
