Destitution Row Lyrics - The Firrenes

Empty voices, faux-soul pleading 

Pour forth from the flatscreens 

There's a battle royal and it's raging 

But Simon just don't care 

Payin' out all your hopes and dreams 

For your fifteen minutes of fame 

Bring it on, hey baby, let me introduce 

Your thirteen seconds of shame 

And won't you take me out tonight 

Won't you take me out tonight 

Won't you show me where the flowers grow 

Down on Destitution Row

Carjack sirens scream a riot through lockdown city streets 

Old Molotov - he's riding high tonight 

His chaos reigns supreme 

Landsmen hide away in fear as the monster bears his fangs 

The dragon caged, goodnight, God bless you all 

The Sun shall rise again 

And won't you take me out tonight 

Won't you take me out tonight 

Won't you show me where the hopeless cry 

Down on Destitution Row 

Oh the men of wealth and power 

Man, they never seemed to miss a beat 

Meanwhile little Jeanie's down there doin' time 

Just for trying to make ends meet 

Where's our Tyler, where's our Bruce? 

The hero of our age? 

Won't you take... Take a little piece of my slumber, Lord 

And turn it into rage

From Destitution Row 

Rise like lions, win we must 

Here on Destitution Row.
