Second Hand People

                                  See the cracks upon the wall 

We do not know the meaning of it all 

Ain't no fire to warm my feet 

Ain't got a nickel for a bit to ear 

We're not workin', we're not slavin' 

Ain't worth a brain, 'cause we're not worth savin' 

Second hand people, tall as a steeple 

Softer then treacle, in a pond are we 

Second hand people 



Ain't no mirror to comb my face 

Just keep on going from place to place 

Ain't got no lights above my head 

Don't even bother to leave my bed 

We're not livin', we're existin' 

We're not movin', just resistin' 

Second hand people, tall as a steeple 

Softer then treacle, in a pond are we 

Second hand people, tall as a steeple 



Softer then treacle
