Sing a Song for Them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

For the bats in the belfry and the fairies on Main Street

For the deadbeat daddies and the Boulevard freaks

For the little girls with the carousel eyes

And the brick-a-brack finding housewives, losing their minds

Sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

To the never-made-its, and the unrecognized

To the alley rats and the tenement flies

To the weekend tweakers, the blond and the blind

To the ex-thrill seekers in the methadone lines

Sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

To who you are, and will never be

To the shaking hand of the maker we're all gonna meet

Sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them

If you sing a song, sing the song for them
