See How We Are lyrics

Artist  : X 
Song : See How We Are



 Send "See How We Are" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Crowded fifty to a room
There's too many rats
in this cage of the world
And the women know
their place
They sit home and write
letters
And when they visit once a
year
Well they both just sit there and
stare
See how we are
Gotta keep bars in
between us
See how we are
We only sing
about it once in every twenty years
See how we
are
Oh see how we are
Now there are seven
kinds of Coke
500 kinds of cigarettes
This
freedom of choice in the USA drives everybody
crazy
But in Acapulco
Well they don't give
a damn
About kids selling Chiclets with no
shoes on their feet
See how we are
And the
Mexico City tourist says to the Indian, "Get the
fuck out of the
way
See how we are
We
only sing about it once in every twenty
years
See how we are
Oh see how we
are
Now that highway's coming through
So
you all gotta move
This bottom rung ain't no
fun at all
No fires and rockhouses and
grape-flavored rat poison
They are the new
trinity
For this so-called community
See
how we are
Gotta keep bars on all of our
windows
See how we are
We only sing about
it once in every twenty years
See how we
are
Oh see how we are
Well this morning the
alarm rang at noon
And I'm trying to write this
letter to you
About how much I care and why I
just can't be there
To draw your both and comb
your hair
Last night in a nightspot
Where
things aren't so hot
My friend said, "I met a
boy and I'm in love"
I said, "Oh really...
What's this one's name?"
She said, "His first
name is Homeboy"
I said "Could his last name
be Trouble?"
See how we are
Homeboy...
Isn't that a South central gangster name?
See
how we are
We only sing about it once in every
twenty years
See how we are
Oh see how we
are
Yeah see how we are
