Messed Up Kids

Johnny deals a bit of blow on the side Thinks that he's invincible, hates a fight Jenny walks the streets alone she was fine But she got kicked out of her home in hard times The messed up kids are on the corner with no money They sell their time they sell their drugs, they sell their body And everywhere I see a sea of empty pockets Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets, so far away It's a washed out Saturday The sky all pastel shades Under breeze block palisades Lights are smashed, the streets are closed in the town Places no one really goes to hang around Give up on us long ago with no hope All you hear's the cold wind blow and get stoned The messed up kids are on the corner with no money They sell their time they sell their drugs, they sell their body And everywhere I see a sea of empty pockets Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets, so far away It's a washed out Saturday The sky all pastel shades Under breeze block palisades The messed up kids are on the corner with no money They sell their time they sell their drugs, they sell their body And everywhere I see a sea of empty pockets Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets, so far away It's a washed out Saturday The sky all pastel shades Under breeze block palisades --- Messed Up Kids - Jake Bugg
