She rides down Fairfax with her Mommy   Canter's on the right, the night is foggy   not foggy enough, she still sees the pain in their eyes   She makes mom explain the reason why   They live on the street, we just drive by   but not fast enough, she still sees the blame in her eyes   Can we please take somebody home   There's room in our house where it's not cold   Why can't we please take somebody home   The little girl cries with love in her eyes       Mom don't make that much in a day   She knows they ain't that far away   from being denied   She barely survives in this land   Can we please take somebody home   There's room in our house where it's not cold   Why can't we please take somebody home   The little girl cries with love in her eyes      Mom tries to explain "supply side"   not much trickles down, justice belie   the eyes of a child see through these civilized lies   Can we please take somebody home   There's room in our house where it's not cold   Why can't we please take somebody home   The little girl cries with love in her eyes
