The Boo Radleys - Shelter lyrics

I remember at school there was always some fool teaching us about the past Pictures of kids, starving, eating out of bins Man we all had to laugh It's hard to believe we were told with relief It couldn't happen now of course It's easy to expound with your head in the ground I've since learnt that and more What is there to do I'm allright so are you but outside there are TB streets You can cry a lot say ‘Oh! my God!' but as an action it is incomplete put money in the hands of those who understand Give shelter of the roofless heads It's hard to deny when you open your eyes and listen to yourself instead And you'll think you've gone crazy but you hope it will pa** It's a sickening feeling maybe it won't last It shouldn't be happening at this point in time With these houses standing empty
