The Litter and the Leaves Lyrics

Another link in the chain getting rusty breaking
Down in the gutter with a smile
It's another case of finding your place
Another number showing what he's made of
The sun sweeps the shadows from the concrete
Morning comes and it's another day
But the streets have voices, the walls have ears
And they're never gonna go awayOn our feet is where we're gonna land
(You can find me in the gutter!)
The gutter is the place where we will make our stand and
With a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand
You'll find me in the gutter in the morningAnd it's here with the litter and the leaves we tremble
Here's where our memories are made
Oh the real life starts in the gutters and the bars
Long after the light of day has faded
Cause we just don't know how to take it we feel
Cheated and excited and afraid
Well they all shake hands and draw their lines in the sand

And forget about the mess they've madeOn our feet is where we're gonna land
(You can find me in the gutter!)
Placing the blame on the chain of command
With a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand
You'll find me in the gutter in the morning
With a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand
You'll find me in the gutter in the morningThey have been sighted, they have been indicted
And we've been ignited to break until they bend
We will deny them, this will be our anthem
We will defy them, till the bitter endWords, witnesses heard
We know it's not that simple
Your lies open our eyes
Force us to rise irate
The world isn't this small
We know it's not that simple
And the gutters give birth, and we're filling the streets
And the city will shake with the sound of feet
...And we'll sing our gutter anthem till the day we die!Life goes on, the city fades away
You can't see the fireworks by the light of day
We're not on the payroll, we're just getting buy
But we'll sing our gutter anthems till we die, die, die
We'll sing our gutter anthems till we die
