lyrics

Out In The Street - inspired by the life and writing of Victor Serge

there’s a policeman living across the hall
listens in whenever there’s a phone call
providing an example of the path not taken

there’s a crowd of people out in the street
and they are shouting no one should be rich
now when grandfather was out in the street
he was shouting no one should be poor

in short life displayed itself to me
varying aspects of degrading captivity
I’m no good
I’m no good for this machine

in father’s house
there were portraits on the wall
of the men who were hanged
thou shalt fight back
this was his one command
