Angry, Young and Poor

He knows he'll be alone tonight
While contemplating, what can I do?
Lack of hope leaves him feeling violent
It's not that he's looking for a fight, it's just
He don't know where to turn

More stress than help, from home and school
And on the streets his life's out of control

Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, oh
Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, no

She never need another chance mental, sexual, physical violence
Not once she heard an encouraging word
Just the phrase, "You better shut up!"
"You're going nowhere!

All her stories, all left untold
So her life became something, so out of control

Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, oh
Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, no

Don't know where to turn
Don't know what to do
Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, no

Politicians talk it up, about their love, for the USA's youth
But when it comes time to put up
Their rhetoric falls back on every excuse
Every excuse, every excuse

Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, oh
Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, no

Don't know where to turn
Don't know what to do
Angry, young and poor angry, young and pissed
Angry no one cares, oh
What?
