CAP Dance Troupe inspired and performed to Michael Rosen's poem

NOWHERE TO CALL HOME/TORN FROM HOME poem performed by the CAP Dance Troupe

What we’re going to tell you about won’t take
LONG

We weren’t doing anything you could say was

WRONG

This is all about being in the wrong kind of

PLACE

This is all about having the wrong kind of

FACE

This is all about being in the wrong kind of

LINE

This is all about being in the wrong kind of

TIME

‘cos we were

called out

turned out

pushed out

shoved out

nowhere to call home

we were all alone

neither here nor there

we were NOWHERE

 

This is all about being on the wrong kind of

SIDE

This is  all about having nowhere to

HIDE

This is all about us not having enough to

EAT

This is all about us having nowhere but the

STREET

 

‘cos we were

called out

turned out

pushed out

shoved out

 

nowhere to call home

we were all alone

neither here nor there

we were NOWHERE
