Take a Look Around

Feather in your cap if you catch a robber

Dirt in your face if your scheme falls through

Pay close attention to my story

You'll find every word is true

Junk man standing on the corner

Selling death, no conscience has he

In the name of God, won't somebody stop him? (Stop him, stop him)

(Stop him, think about the children)

It's a matter of life and death, can't you see?

Ain't no time to stand back and point your finger

(Ain't no time to point your finger)

We've got to face reality

No, no, no, no (We all go to)

Don't turn your back on this problem, people (No, no, no, people)

Too much depends on you and me

Desperate, with no sense of values

Just an evil mind lookin' through the night

Because of you, the streets ain't safe no more for walkin', walkin'

(Walkin', walkin', walkin' because of you)

'Cause you're feelin' so uptight, yeah

Take a look around

Don't be afraid (Are you afraid?)

Take a look around

It's tearing the younger generation down

(Don't be afraid)

Take a look around

No, don't be afraid (Are you afraid?)

Take a look around

People, it's up to you and me

(Don't be afraid)

It's tearing the younger generation down (Take a look around)

Are you afraid?

Take a look around
