Lyrics The Be Good Tanyas

The Be Good Tanyas

Junkie Song

Took a walk in my neighborhood

It was two in the mourning

By the skytrain station

The streets were full of junkies and homeless

And they all wanted something

They all wanted something

And what am I supposed to do?

There are too many of you

Too many of you

And sometimes they look you straight in the eye

Saying 'I too am human, you could easily be here

Easily be here'

Although we all hover between apathy and compassion

Fill up all our days with so much distraction

Whatever makes it easier to see what we don't want to

But we all live here

We all live here

We all live here don't we?

Took a walk in my neighbourhood

It was two in the mourning

By the skytrain station

The streets were full of junkies and homeless

And they all wanted something

They all wanted something

And what am I supposed to do?

There are too many of you

Too many of you
