The Shame Of A Perfect Race Lyrics - Singles - Drifter

Do you know the story of poverty and suffering? 

Do you know the story of shame and loneliness? 

A cold winter and a cold heart that stole the life 

Of an old man 

No pity and an ice cold room now he was left alone 

In loneliness 

He met his doom 

Ignorance we feel it 

To break out of this game 

Blow for blow we fight back 

Shout it out we are men 

'Subhuman creatures' got to die for industry and science 

Just to make Mrs. Rich smell nice 

Watch the many beggars roaming streets and doorways 

Just a piece of bread, just a coin and for them a dream 

Comes true 

It's a shame to have money and ignore the need 

Closing your eyes makes your mind turn greedy 

Want and need are the same for us all 

Black or white, rich or poor 

Can you sleep quietly when you hear the cries of despair? 

Can you live your life without fear? 

Look at those wankers they don't care what's going on 

People, people like that just think of number one 

We're not able to cry 

We suppress the truth
