Letra de 'Skid Row (Downtown)' de Little Shop Of Horrors

[Woman]
Alarm goes off at seven
And you start uptown
You put in your eight hours
For the powers that have always been
Till it's five PM

[Bum 1]
Then you go

[Company]
Downtown
Where the folks are broke
Downtown
Where your life's a joke
Downtown
When you buy your token
You go
Home to Skid Row

[Bum 2]
Yes, you go

[Company]
Downtown
Where the cabs don't stop
Downtown
Where the food is slop
Downtown
Where the hop-heads flop
In the snow
Down on Skid Row

Uptown you cater to a million jerks
Uptown you're messengers and
Mailroom clerks
Eating all your lunches at the
Hot dog carts
The bosses take your money
And they break your hearts

Uptown you cater to a million whores
You disinfect terrazzo on their
Bathroom floors
Your morning's tribulation
Afternoon's a curse
And five o'clock is even worse

[Bum 3]
That's when you go

[Company]
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row

[Audrey]
Where the guys are drips
Where they rip your slips
Where relationships are no go
Down on skid row
Down on skid row
Down on skid row
Down on skid row!

[Seymour]
Poor! All my life I've always been poor
I keep asking God what I'm for
And he tells me: Gee, I'm not sure
Sweep that floor, kid
Oh, I started life as an orphan
A child of the street
Here on Skid Row
He took me in, gave me shelter, a bed
Crust of bread and a job
Treats me like dirt, calls me a slob
Which I am
So I live
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour]
That's your home address
Ya live
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour]
When your life's a mess
Ya live
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour]
Where depressions' Jes'
Status quo
[Company]
Down on Skid Row

Someone show me a way to get
Outta here
'Cause I constantly pray I'll get
Outta here
Please, won't somebody say I'll get
Outta here
Someone gimme my shot or I'll
Rot here

[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
There's no rules for us
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
'Cause it's dangerous
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
Where the rainbow's jus' a no-show
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
Where the Sun don't
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
Past the bottom line
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
Go ask any wino, he'll know
I'll do I dunno what to get outa Skid
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
But a hell of a lot to get outa Skid
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
People tell me there's not a way outa Skid
[Company]
Downtown
[Seymour and Audrey]
But believe me I gotta get outa Skid Row
