Now, (Bbm7)See the peo ple lock their doors

while (Bbm7)rob bers laugh and steal;

(Gb)beg gars watch and eat their meals

in (Ab)from to gar bage cans.

(Bbm7)Bro ken glass is ev ’ry where;

star (Bbm7)it’s a blood y scene.

(Gb)Kill ing plagues the cit i zens

un (Ab)less they own po lice.

Now, (Bbm7)Chil dren play with rust ed cars;

while (Bbm7)sores cov er their hands.

(Gb)Pol i ti cians laugh and drink,

in (Ab)drunk lage all de mands.

(Ab)Vil lage ghet to (Ab7)land.
