I haven't got a job

'Cos they say they couldn't use no freaks

I want a position at the top

No training and a two day week

Won't you take me

To the land of flood and hunger

Won't you lead me

To the streets of dust and death

Let it rain on me

Let it shine on you

Let the sun shine through

Sugar plum

I haven't got a car

'Cos I never earned enough

To pay the price of fuel

Now I'm playin' my guitar

'Cos you understand that

I got the blues

Won't you take me

To the land of flood and hunger

Won't you lead me

To the streets of dust and death

Let it rain on me

Let it shine on you

Let the sun shine through

Sugar plum

Now I'm walking through the street

And I haven't eaten nothin'

For a week or two

I imagine that my belly's gonna swell

'Til I can't see my shoes

Won't you take me

To the land of flood and hunger

Won't you lead me

To the streets of dust and death

Let it rain on me

Let it shine on you

Let the sun shine through

Sugar plum
