Sleep Outside - The Slackers

I went to pay the rent just the other day

No I just can’t believe what the landlord said

He said «you know you can’t stay much longer…

You’ll have to sleep outside»

Well, back in the 80s everything was good

I had the hope for the future like a young boy should

But now it seems those dreams are over

We’re gonna pay the price

State of a nation calling!

State of a nation falling down

All around my eyes

Faced that I can’t pay the rent

So I gotta pitch a tent

Now I sleep outside

Back in the 80s everything was good

I had th hope for the future lik a young boy should

But now it seems those dreams are over

We’re gonna pay the price

For the greedy sins of a rich old man

Making love to the profits of a wasted land

I hope his days are numbered

Even if we have to fight

It’s a state of a nation calling!

State of a nation falling down

All around my eyes

Faced, that I can’t pay the rent

So I gotta pitch a tent

Now I sleep outside

Yeah I sleep outside

Don’t you know I sleep outside
