I'm the scum of the earth
I am a cancer
I'm the scum of the earth
Hey my children
I am humanity
I've seen the canyons, I've seen the cities
I am a cancer
I'm the scum of the earth
I am humanity
I'm the scum of the earth
I'm the scum of the earth
I am humanity
Hey my children
I'm the scum of the earth
I'm the scum of the earth
Hey my children
Take a look at the earth from a plane
What seems important won't last forever
What seems important won't last forever
Take a look at L.A. from the sky
When it comes to you, when it comes to me
I'm the scum of the earth
Hey my children
I'm the scum of the earth
I've seen the prisons that take such pity
Never to see the light 'til the end of time
I'm the scum of the earth
It's just money that will set you free
I cross the borders, I cross the line
What seems important won't last forever
I am a cancer
I'm the scum of the earth
I am a cancer
I am humanity
I'm the scum of the earth
You'll see the earth cut up and in pain
Hey my children
I'm the scum of the earth
Hey my children
I'm the scum of the earth
Hey my children
I'm the scum of the earth
Hey my children
What you see should make you cry
What seems important won't last forever
What seems important won't last forever
What seems important won't last forever
What seems important won't last forever
I'm the scum of the earth
