Please mister Find me a home I have me some money I'll throw you a bone Please mister I worked all my life I had me a place A place with my wife Cookie Construction Tore my home down They razed it to nothing Leveled to ground This city's so crowded There isn't the room For someone disabled Who has paid his dues Who served for his country The red, white and blue We'll give him some money And throw him his food We'll move him two counties It's better for him Then to let him live where His life did begin We'll give him new neighbors We'll give him new friends We'll give him a stamp card To eat with again Hey, you with the uncle How come no grin? I'm too tuckered; tired For this mess again

Pushed, Shoved And Broken
