Incognito - People at the Top lyrics

She's lookin' for a way out of this hole
She's out on her own
With hungry mouths to feed
The precious little she scratches on the dole
Is barely enough to cover all their needs

It hurts to see her once strong frame
Broken down
By the constant blows of rejection
And now in place of the sweetest smile
She wears a frown, of worry and dejection
Oh it's a cold, cold world

When you're cryin out for a little love
A little love and understandin'

People at the top looking down
They don't wanna know whose at
The back of the line
People at the top looking down
Can't relate to our troubled minds

People at the top looking down
People at the top

She's all caught up in these inner city blues
Out of control, she's losin' her mind
Her story's told but it's second hand news
To a world without care
They've heard it all before

Tryin' to do the best she can
But she's losin' faith in all
That she believes in
The light is fading and hope is dissipatin'
They say that they listen
Lord knows that they don't hear

When you're cryin out for a little love
A little love and understandin'

People at the top looking down
They don't wanna know whose at
The back of the line
People at the top looking down
Can't relate to our troubled minds
