Waking Up On the Street,
Waking up on the street.
Oh my stomach hurts!
What's that smell?
What time is it?
Where am I?
Should I get up?
Who cares anyway?
What can I eat?
Where can I go?
Sir can you help me?
Why do you look at me like that?
Oh!
That smell is me!
Yuck!
Who cares anyway?
Oh my back hurts!
Can I get up?
Let me try!
Why bother!
There's no hope!
Who cares anyway?
Oh! Thank you sir you are so kind!
What??
Get away from me!!
I'm just a kid!!!
Who cares anyway?
I need a shower
Where can I go?
Maybe the shelter...
What!
No more room!!
Please let me stay!
It's cold outside!
What?
Get away from me!!
I'm just a kid!
Who cares anyway?
I need to sleep!
No
I just got up
There's a nice man!
Sir can you help me!
I'm hungry!
What!!
You have a place for me!!
I have to do what!!
Get away from me!!
I'm just a kid!
Who cares anyway?
I'm so hungry!!
Hi Mom!
Can you come and get me?
Oh no!
Leave a message after the tone!
Hi Mom can you come and get me!
Wait! Where am I?
I don't know where I am!
Who cares anyway?
Oh my stomach hurts!
What is that smell?
What time is it?
Where am I?
Who cares anyway?
I need to sleep
no I just woke up!!
Sir can you help me?...
