"Not Safe" lyrics

"Not Safe"

Counting my change in the back of the bus
I don't have enough for the both of us
The corner store charges way too much
I don't have enough, so let's just skip lunch

I'm not safe (Not safe)
I'm not safe or sorry
I'm not safe (Not safe)

Waiting in line now, it's after two
The air is stale, I need new shoes
It's hard when your needs aren't met
To do what you like and to give your best

We're not safe (Not safe)
We're not safe or sorry
We're not safe (Not safe)
I'm not sorry
I'm not safe (Not safe)

The price is the same for that loaf of bread
The same dirt will cover you when you're dead
Enjoy the privilege of earning twice as much
Someday that phone will ring, you'll be out of luck

You're not safe (Not safe)
You're not safe or sorry
You're not safe (Not safe)
I'm not sorry

I'm not sorry
