He's playing with fire
And someday he'll get burned.
He sleeps around
He spends the money he has earned.

Living on the edge
Running from your fears
Is a lifetime of danger built in over the years.

He watches his little girl
Playing in the street.
All that wasted time
And no more food to eat.

All these tears
But, no one to help you.
Living on the edge
Is what this family must do.
