feather in your cap if you catch a robber
dirt in your face if your scheme falls through
pay close attention to my story
you’ll find every word is true
junk man standing on the corner
selling death no conscience has he
in the name of god won’t somebody stop him
stop him think about the children
its a matter of life and death you see
ain’t no time to stand back and point your finger
we’ve got to face reality
no no no no no
don’t turn your back on this problem people
too much depends on you and me
4
desperate with no sense of values
just an evil mind lurking through the night
because of you the streets ain’t safe no more for walking
’cause you’re feeling so uptight
take a look around
don’t be afraid
take a look around
it’s a younger generation now
take a look around
don’t be afraid
take a look around
it’s up to you and me
take a look around
it’s a younger generation now
