BADLANDS
©Littlewood, Simpson


There’s a place I know
And it’s not far away from here
And the people are saying
They’re living in fear
And the empty streets 
Where you can’t go out on your own
No Police patrol
But you know this is my home

And I’m living in the badlands
Take me far away
Tomorrow there’s no future
It’s just another new today

Now I’m living in the badlands
And I need to escape
Look into the future
If only we could find a way

When I look around
Thing’s have never been so bad
And the sun don’t shine
It’s a thing of the past
All the factories
They’ve long gone and disappeared
And there’s nothing left of those forgotten years

And I’m living in the badlands
Take me far away
Tomorrow there’s no future
It’s just another new today

Now I’m living in the badlands
And we need to escape
Look into the future
If only we could find a way
