lyrics

Cut me in
I don't know where I should begin
I guess it started way back when we were just kids
You had the biggest house I'd ever seen
My mom was the one they payed to clean it

I've got a low-class pedigree
Don't really care what you think about me
Because I'm mal-adjusted
And my dreams are busted
But I've got all I need
Here with me
And I know I'll get on
With a broken dream and a song

As we got older
All the lines we drew got bolder
While the gaps were getting wider
And the shoulders got colder
It's too bad I couldn't afford new shoes
I guess that meant I'm not as cool as you

<chorus>

I can't speak for you
(you) can't speak for me
We can only speak about what we can see
I know that nothing comes for free but
No one is working harder than me
Maybe we're all slaves in this land of free
But all it takes is just a little empathy and
The world could be a better place
We could save the human race
