 LYRICS  

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
