about

A painting depicting the poverty of circumstance, and the poverty of the human soul.

lyrics

Hunger
Denes McIntosh

She's hungry, and she's homeless
she's left layin' by the road
a mother cryin' "won't you take my child to your home
and give her shelter".

Chorus:
"Give her something for her hunger
something for her soul
something for her sadness
and something for the cold
that's been growin' in her heart
tearin' her apart
and keepin' her from ever bein' whole".

The hard side of the tracks
in every hometown USA
growing weary of the struggle
gettin' tougher every day
to keep from letting go.

Chorus:
"give them. . . "

Inner city families
no earth between their toes
momma's runnin' down a hustle
you know how the story goes
it's not a pretty one.

Chorus:
"give them. . ."

Suburban middle class
has all the new computer toys
but the bills are overdue
and daddy's drinkin' with the boys
till early mornin'.

Chorus:
"give him. . ."

Hollywood mentality
borders on insanity
pleasure seeking fantasy
a crippling disease
you know it's tragic.

Chorus:
