Untouchables

Words & Music by James Mark ©2001 Bonobos
See them daily
on your way to work
Looking safely
through the glass
Thought your
condescension never hurt
Mercy fading to the past

On a busy street
they stand again
Low on fuel low on pride
Save your pennies
and your prayers for them
There but for grace
go you and I
See them,
we could be them
Never say never

Was a time they're
working by our side
Was a dream we all could share
Was a place the poor
could spend the night
Now they jam the public square

On a busy street
they stand again
Low on fuel low on pride
Save your pennies
and your prayers for them
There but for grace go you and I

On a busy street they stand again
Low on fuel low on pride
