Bag Lady (i Wonder)

<br>Through the New York winter<br>With rags around her feet<br>Clutching ancient shopping bags<br>Destitutions beat<br>Burned out like a frozen matchstick<br>Screaming at the wall<br>A helpless hungry lady<br>With no friends to call<br>Chorus:<br>I wonder<br>Where she goes when the night falls<br>What thunder<br>Has made us deaf to her calls?<br>Bag lady...<br>Oh gloveless, shattered frailty<br>The damp wind bites her hands<br>She shuffles by a restaurant<br>Towards their garbage cans<br>She eats the rotten refuse<br>Like vermin on the dead<br>Screaming at the passersby<br>"Get it through your heads!"<br>repeat chorus<br>Sometimes on my way to work<br>I give her my spare change<br>The Shopping Bag Lady<br>Looks at me like I`m strange<br>She never once says thank you<br>But I don`t mind a bit<br>All these homeless people<br>Can`t make no sense of it<br>repeat chorus
