Sidewalk - Icehouse

Sidewalk, sleep on the sidewalk, the ragman stands at the end of a line

His eyes burn hard in the light of day, so proud of the American Way

But it’s a lie, yeah, lie, and you believe every word

Well, it’s a lie, yeah, lie, but what goes on in your mind?

And when the walls come down on the American dream

You’re gonna sleep on the sidewalk

In your hands, dirt and blood on your hands

In your day, you didn’t need anyone

So look around, remember, yeah, these are your friends

But it’s a lie, yeah, lie, and you believe every word

Well, it’s a lie, yeah, lie, but what goes on in your mind?

But when the walls come down, yeah when the walls come down

When the walls come down, on the American dream

You’re gonna sleep on the sidewalk, sleep with the redhead

When you’re so proud, it’s the American Way, it’s the American Way

Sidewalk, sidewalk, sleep on the, sleep on the sidewalk

On the American dream
