God Bless The Whores On Charlotte Street

God bless the whores on Charlotte Street
The shopping cart carriages, blistered feet
Mary Anne works at the methadone clinic
Once had compassion, now she's a cynic

Paint them a portrait of Vincent Van Gogh
Let us be children where sunflowers grow
Far from pawn shops, pharmacy counters
Those opiate addled late night encounters

Our aim is true, though hearts have rusted
In Jesus Christ and Laudanum we trusted
Fairy tale endings, cracks in the pavement
Flesh and blood dolls, human enslavement
