Grown up with hopes of existence
Filled with dozens of chances
Living in a state of uncertainty
Some day lose your confidence

Nursery, mates, holiday camps - Thrashings, streets, bad company
Girls, parties, university studies - Booze, stubs, temporary jobs
Employment, home, car, loves - Homeless, second-hand clothes
Wife, children, gladness - Broken up family, poverty

Rake about among the garbage to survive
Struggling from morning till night to survive
Struggling for life

Nobody cares for their life
Lends them a helping hand
Most people would forget them
Give not even one more chance

Dreaming about an existence
Catch hold of the last chance
Returning to the fireside
Just dreams under the newsprints
