When you’re young so in love and free   And bewildered by the world we see   Why do people hurt you so   Only those in love would know   What a town without pity can do      If we stop to gaze upon a star   People talk about how mad we are   Ours is such an evil age   We’re like flowers in a cage   What a town without pity can do      well we, have problems, many problems   We need an understanding heart   Why don’t they help us, try to help us   Before this clay and granite planet falls apart      Take these eager lips and hold me fast   I’m afraid this kind of joy can’t last   How can we keep love alive   How can anything survive   When these little minds tear you in two   What a town without pity can do      Instrumental section      How can we keep love alive   How can anything survive   When these little minds tear you in two   What a town without pity can do      No it isn’t very pretty what a town without pity...pause ...can do---
