Subcity

Tracy Chapman

People say it doesnt exist

cause no one would like to admit

That there is a city underground

Where people live everyday

Off the waste and decay

Off the discards of their fellow man

Here in subcity life is hard

We cant receive any government relief

Won't you please, please give Mr. President my honest regards

For disregarding me

They say theres too much crime in these city streets

My sentiments exactly

Government and big business hold the purse strings

When I worked I worked in the factories

Im at the mercy of the world

I guess Im lucky to be alive

Here in subcity life is hard

We cant receive any government relief

Won't you please, please give Mr. President my honest regards

For disregarding me

They say weve fallen through the cracks

They say the system works

But we wont let it

Help

I guess they never stop to think

We might not just want handouts

But a way to make an honest living

Living this aint living

Here in subcity life is hard
