Last Scream Of The Missing Neighbors

In the dirtiest part of the city 
Where the sun refused to shine 
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin' 


My love, you're so young and pretty 
One thing I know is true 
You're gonna die before your time is due 


See my daddy, he lay dying 
See his hair all turning grey 
He's been workin' and slavin' his life away 


He's been workin', yeah 
Everyday, slavin' his life away 
He's been workin', yeah 
Work, work, work, work, work, work 


We gotta get out of this place 
If it's the last thing we ever do 


We gotta get out of this place 
Babe, there's a better life for me and you 


My love, you're so young and pretty 
There's one thing I wish you'd do 
Throw that needle away, it doesn't mean much to you 


Some of our best friends have died 
You can see them turnin' grey 
Workin' real hard throwin' their lives away 


They've been workin' yeah 
Everyday, throwin' their lives away 
They've been workin', yeah 
Work, work, work, work, work, work 


We gotta get out of this place 
If it's the last thing we ever do 


I know it 
And you know it, too 


We gotta get out of this place 
If it's the last thing we ever do 


Think about it 
For once in your life 
It's now or never, baby 
C'mon
