Phelgm on the street and sick on the floor 
Sally is ready to face the day once more 
While you tuck into your breakfast of eggs 
Think of Sally as she steals and begs 

Tatty clothes on her back worn out shoes on her feet 
As she lies huddled in newspaper on a busy street 
Sally I'm afraid to say is not the only one 
There is also Billy, Charlie, Rosie and John

The salvation for this band of five 
Is a bottle they pass round to keep them alive 
Yesterday's disused pizza in a overstuffed bin 
For Sally and friends this is certainly a win

Homeless people should not happen in the world today 
According to the politicians and rich anyway 
But for Sally and friends the reality is plain to see 
Once normal people now considered the dregs of society
