Born in the trash – it's the pain that I feel You men with power – can't you see that I'm real You call yourself civilized – treat me like a slave It feels like I carry – my own cross to the grave You leave me no chance – to live my own life You force me to live – my life by the knife And up there you sit – you've locked up your doors Chossin' my fate – in the name of the law
I'm alive – but I'm not free I might as well be dead Life in the trash – beyond all compare Life in the trash – hope's not enough for me
You fight wars with words – and act so polite But sill you decide – what is good and right But don't you forget – that time conquers all Usurers die – and empires fall
I'm alive – but I'm not free I might as well be dead Life in the trash – it's filthy ant mean Life in the trash – only the strong survive.
