Silent Witness

UB40

The neon haze of city lights 
The tribal sound of marching feet 
Cuts through the gloom on cold dark nights 
The tired and homeless roam the streets 
The sirens wail the engines roar 
A shadowed man just glances around 
A victim of life's mindless toil 
Lies cold and helpless on the ground 

The window dummies silent stare 
Bear witness on the nights 
If they could move 
What it would proved 
To see them all take flight 

The neon haze of city lights 
The tribal sound of marching feet 
Cuts through the gloom on cold dark nights 
The tired and homeless roam the streets 
The walls shout loud with angry words 
The people air their views 
The poor can scream but no-one hears 
The concrete jungle sings the blues
