10CC lyrics : "Fresh Air For My Mama"

So say one and so say all
Say what you gotta say
Or don't say nothing at all

You been tossin' and turnin' through soft sticky nights
While the Bronx below you fights to stay alive


So say one and so say all
Be what you gotta be
Or don't be nothing at all


Be gracious to your mother
When you leave this neighbourhood

The change is going to do her good
Next to me you look bad
'Cos there ain't no fresh air for my momma, my momma


But the drop is shear
When you break away


Take me away
It's just about time to hit the road

And say
You gotta believe in something
It's easy to see

My God is fading away
So pick up your bible and pray for me


We're all alone in the darkness
But our eyes are wide open
We don't see nothing

And our hands are tied
To the railings of the Bowery
And the humid city slickers


So say one and so say all
We had a lot to say

And we said it all

The cost of living in dreams

Is rising like a crime wave
The American way of dying


And it gets you every time
And it looks like it's got to my momma
My momma

May she rest in peace
