Bag Lady (i Wonder) Lyrics - Singles - Ebn Ozn

Through the New York winter 

With rags around her feet 

Clutching ancient shopping bags 

Destitutions beat 

Burned out like a frozen matchstick 

Screaming at the wall 

A helpless hungry lady 

With no friends to call 

Chorus: 

I wonder 

Where she goes when the night falls 

What thunder 

Has made us deaf to her calls? 

Bag lady... 

Oh gloveless, shattered frailty 

The damp wind bites her hands 

She shuffles by a restaurant 

Towards their garbage cans 

She eats the rotten refuse 

Like vermin on the dead 

Screaming at the passersby 

"Get it through your heads!" 

repeat chorus 

Sometimes on my way to work 

I give her my spare change 

The Shopping Bag Lady 

Looks at me like I'm strange 

She never once says thank you 

But I don't mind a bit 

All these homeless people 

Can't make no sense of it 

repeat chorus
