Dear mother can you whining It's been three whole weeks Since that I have left your home This sudden fear has left me trembling Cause now it seems that I am out here on my And I'm feeling so alone
Pay attention to the cracked streets And the broken homes Some call it slums Some it nice I want to take you through A wasteland I like to call my home Welcome to paradise
A gunshot out at the station Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own makes me wonder why I'm still here For some strange reason it's now Feeling like my home I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets And the broken homes Some call it slums Some call it nice I want to take you through A wasteland I like call my home Welcome to paradise
Dear mother can you hear laughing It's been six whole months Since that I have left your home It makes me wonder why I'm still here For some strange reason it's now Feeling like my home And I'm never go
Pay attention to the cracked streets And the broken homes Some call it slums Some call it nice I want to take you through wasteland I like to call my home Welcome to paradise Oh paradise
