Sing a Song for Them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for themFor the bats in the belfry and the fairies on Main street

for the deadbeat daddies and the boulevard friezeFor the little girls with the carousel eyes

And the brick-a-brack-finding housewives losing their mindsSing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for themTo 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 linesSing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for themTo who you are and will never be

To the shaking hand of the maker we're all gonna meetSing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them

If you sing a song, sing a song for them
