Silver Spoon - Ron Pope

You’ve got your silver spoon hangin' around your neck

And who your father is don’t matter much down here

Sometimes it’s easier to fight than run away

When will you learn, I never burn?

This child cannot be saved

And while you limousine, and fancy airplane ride

I’m in a factory where they tear apart my insides

And what is left of me cannot be called a man

When will you learn, I never burn?

So here I stand again

If this is how the story ends, with the headlines cursing

Could you persecute me still?

When they’re calling off the dogs, and you’re sleeping on the lawn

Will your heart desert me?

She’s got a golden crucifix

And a pair of bloodshot eyes

Got a heart that doesn’t mind

Yeah, a heart you couldn’t find

I see the world in black and white

So it’s easier at night

I’ve got a heart that doesn’t mind

Yeah, a heart you’ll never find

Heart you’ll never find

Yeah, a heart you’ll never find

Still I try

Still I try

To find a little meaning in my life
