Lyrics
There's aluminum cans and cigarettes butts
Lyin' in the sides of the streets
The baseball field in the County Park
Is buried in a blanket of weeds
There's a swastika sprayed from an aerosol can
Displayed on the overpass
Drivin' around it's easy to see
This town's going downhill fast
Somebody should do somethin' about it
How hard could it be?
Somebody should do somethin' about it
Maybe that someone is me
Followed a couple into Ferguson's Grill
The door swung back in my face
Closed my eyes but I felt the stares
When I bowed my head to say, "Grace"
Watched a table of suits stiff the waitress a tip
Like they didn't have a nickel to spare
Walked out into the heat risin' off of main street
But I felt a chill in the air
Somebody should do somethin' about it
How hard could it be?
Somebody should do somethin' about it
Maybe that someone is me
Now I don't expect this world to be Heaven
But it sure could be better
I can sit around complaining or stand around waiting
But I might be waiting forever, forever
Somebody should do somethin' about it
How hard could it be?
Somebody should do somethin' about it
Maybe that someone is me
