Born in the trash - it's the pain that I feel   You men with power - can't you see that I'm real   You call yourself civilized - treat me like a slave   It feels like I carry - my own cross to the grave      You leave me no chance - to live my own life   You force me to live - my life by the knife   And up there you sit - you've locked up your doors   Chossin' my fate - in the name of the law      I'm alive - but I'm not free   I might as well be dead   Life in the trash - beyond all compare   Life in the trash - hope's not enough for me      You fight wars with words - and act so polite   But sill you decide - what is good and right   But don't you forget - that time conquers all   Usurers die - and empires fall      I'm alive - but I'm not free   I might as well be dead   Life in the trash - it's filthy ant mean   Life in the trash - only the strong survive.
