Devlin - Community Outcast lyrics

This is for everyone everywhere in a state of
Depression because I know you can all relate
Outcast to society:

I represent for the homeless
Let down by a nation
More interested in war in this nation
When children are sleeping
At railway stations
No home or money
They wish they could call their mummy to
Put a hot meal in their tummy
So at night when the temperature drops
I'm asking you to remember what you got
These kids go home to a cardboard box
They're the soul survivors
Warming their hands with a flick and
A flame in their lighters
All their life they've been frightened
On the streets with their head down
Knowing deep inside that they've
Really been let down
By a country that's crippled
And I thought mankind was
Supposed to be civil

I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left in the streets where it's evil
Little kids surrounded by knives
And heroin needles
Yea I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left on the streets where it's evil
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble

I represent single Mums
All alone on their own trying to put food
In the mouths of her two sons
And the fathers gone, there's no cash flow
Lack of income
But that's just the way it is
She counts fifteen needles pushing her pram
On the way to the lift
And this is where Blair said it's
Safe to live and raise kids
She finds her way out of the block
With two kids in a pram and a
Rip and a stain in her top
She goes to sign on just to
Maintain the little she's got
For her kids sake
But they'll never seen a decent life
But they can dream and they'll sleep tonight
They've been hung out and left to dry
The kids are in bed, Mums left to cry

I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left in the streets where it's evil
Little kids surrounded by knives
And heroin needles
Yea I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left on the streets where it's evil
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble

I represent for the old folk, that live alone
No family or kids at home
And all he wants is someone to speak
To but nobody rings the phone
Sit's at home in the dark, no electric
Since his wife passed, he can't accept it
He feels isolated, neglected
And now his council flats infested
So he goes to the shop for his papers
With a stick and he falls in the mud
The people around him all pulled him up
But to him that's just a reminder
He's old and he's weak with no one to love
He sees clouds up above
Another bad day in the diary
An old man by the many
Killed by society, strangled quietly

I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left in the streets where it's evil
Little kids surrounded by knives
And heroin needles
Yea I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left on the streets where it's evil
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble

I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left in the streets where it's evil
Little kids surrounded by knives
And heroin needles
Yea I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left on the streets where it's evil
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble
