pat orchard - tough luck - acoustic lyrics

when you’re old and frail living all alone
in a high+rise slum that some they call your home
and your only contact with a city far below
is a tiny tinny voice capital radio
and when you’re out street walking
for those tricks in their cars
when a mountain of make+up doesn’t hide all the scars
of a life+time struggling to make your ends meet
now you’re just cattle girls
you’re flesh and you’re going cheap
these things are happening your time is up
there’s no escape girls tough luck
and when your just sixteen you turn to sniffing glue
and you can hold down inflation stuck there in your queue
you’ve got no job you’ve got no self respect
you’re just one in the millions well what do you expect
these things are happening your time is up
you’re young i know it’s just beginners luck tough luck
when you’re one in a city you’re just a face in the crowd
and you need to be heard but the city’s too loud
so you steal some paint from a market stall
and you scrawl you’re message high on a sub+way wall
it’s going to be there after i’ve gone
it says it all the title to this song
tough luck
