The starving children have been replaced by souls out on the street We give a dollar when we pass and hope our eyes don't meet We pencil in, we cancel out, we crave the corner suite We kiss your ass, we make you hold, we doctor the receipt And the stones in the road leave a mark from whence they came A thousand points of light or shame, baby, I don't know Stones in the road...
