Mind Your Head
They’re culling the homeless this evening
The police will all be there of course
To make sure that things are done fairly
Without too much violence or force
Armed with their high powered rifles
Loaded with high powered shells
With orders to shoot anyone on their route
Who is dirty unshaven or smells
They’re searching down all the back alleys
To find all the vagrants they can
They’ll blow out their brains while they’re sleeping
And load them all up in the van
Take care when abroad on this evening
And avoid any casual dress
Going scruffily out means without any doubt
Your head will end up in a mess
