"Village Ghetto Land" lyrics
"Village Ghetto Land"
Would you like to go with me
Down my dead end street
Would you like to come with me
To Village Ghetto Land
See the people lock their doors
While robbers laugh and steal
Beggars watch and eat their meal - from garbage cans
Broken glass is everywhere
It's a bloody scene
Killing plagues the citizens
Unless they own police
Children play with rusted cars
Sores cover their hands
Politicians laugh and drink - drunk to all demands
Families buying dog food now
Starvation roams the streets
Babies die before they're born
Infected by the grief
Now some folks say that we should be
Glad for what we have
Tell me would you be happy in Village Ghetto Land
Village Ghetto Land

In the pool hall

Can't you see who he's after?...

On a warm summer night.

George Clinton - "Pot Sharing Tots" If we were just babies
Sharing a cradle
I'd share a suck on my thumb with you
We wouldn't freak out, like the grown-ups do
If I were one, and you were two
I would do a striptease for you
If we...
