WE JUST WANT SOME PEACE,
WE AIN’T CAUSING NO HARM
JUST A PLACE TO LAY OUR HEADS
TO BE TOGETHER AND WARM
IS IT ASKING TOO MUCH
TO JUST LEAVE US BE?
WE AIN’T GOT NOWHERE TO GO,
THAT FACT IS PLAIN TO SEE
WHY WON’T THEY JUST LEAVE US ALONE?
THEIR ONLY SOLUTION
IS LOOKING DOWN FROM THEIR THRONE
THEY JUST WANT US TO GO AWAY
SORRY TO EMBARRASS YOU AND BE IN THE WAY
IT BRINGS ME TO MY KNEES
TO BE SO DESTITUTE
THIS WASN’T THE PLAN
BUT I JUST DO WHAT I DO
SOMETIMES I’M SO MAD
ABOUT THE WAY THAT I’M JUDGED
I’M JUST A MAN TRYING TO LIVE
BUT EVERYWHERE I’M SNUBBED
WHY WON’T THEY JUST LEAVE US ALONE?
WE AIN’T GOT NO JOBS
AND WE AIN’T GOT NO HOMES
THEY JUST WANT US TO DISAPPEAR
MAKE NO MISTAKE, WE HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR
THEY TOOK AWAY MY ONLY FRIEND
ELDER HAD MY BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN
I’M GONNA FIND A WAY TO MAKE THEM PAY
WE WERE PERFECTLY FINE
LIVING HERE ON OUR OWN
NOW THEY’VE UPSET THE VIBE
WITH THE NO HOMELESS ZONE
THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND
WHO THEY’RE MESSING WITH
I’M PJ THE DJ
AND i DON’T TAKE NO SHIT
WHY WON’T THEY JUST LEAVE US ALONE?
WE AIN’T GOT NO JOBS
AND WE AIN’T GOT NO HOME
THEY JUST WANT US TO DISAPPEAR
MAKE NO MISTAKE,
WE HEAR them LOUD AND CLEAR
WHY DON’T THEY JUST LEAVE US ALONE
THEY THINK THE SOLUTION
IS LOOKING DOWN FROM THEIR THRONE
THEY JUST WANT US TO GO AWAY
SO SORRY TO EMBARRASS YOU AND BE IN THE WAY
