They say this is freedom
By Scarborough/K
Songs R Us Publishing

Have you got a dime?
Have you got a dollar?
Have you got a cigarette?
Can you help me out,
with something to eat?

Down with the Government.
Down with the Corporations.
Down with you.
Down with me.

I'm down on my luck.
The only constant is
this bottle in my hand.
I've come to see it as
my only friend.


Down with the Government.
Down with the Corporations.
Down with you.
Down with me.

I don't stand for anything.
I'm against everything.
Hell, to pay, but I haven't got a dime.
So, I break into your car,
commit any old crime to get by.

People feed me sandwiches,
so I can save what I panhandle
for my booze.
In life you can do what you choose;
I'm not going into rehab,
that's for losers.


Down with the Government.
Down with the Corporations.
Down with you.
Down with me.

They say this is freedom,
letting me walk the streets this way.
When I come near them,
most people look the other way.

Down with the Government.
Down with the Corporations.
Down with you.
Down with me.

A dollar won't fix me.
A sandwich won't feed me.
This bottle won't fill me up
with what I really need.

Down with the Government.
Down with the Corporations.
Down with you.
Down with me.

I'm hungry
I'm tired
I'm lonely
I don't know what else to do
but take another swallow from this bottle.

I'm hungry
I'm tired
I'm lonely
is this the only reality
that I will ever know

I'm hungry
I'm tired
I'm lonely.

Down with the Government.
Down with the Corporations.
Down with you.
Down with me.
