Skid Row (Downtown) [From 'Little Shop of Horrors']

Alarm goes off at seven
And you start uptown.
You put in your eight hours
For the powers that have always been.
Till it's five P.M.
Then You go
Downtown
Where the folks are broke.
You go downtown
Where your life's a joke.
You go downtown
When you buy your token, you go
Home to skid row.
Yes, you go
Downtown
Where the cabs don't stop
Downtown
Where the food is slop
Downtown
Where the hop-heads flop in the snow
Down on Skid Row
Uptown you cater to a million jerks.
Uptown you're messengers and
mailroom clerks
eating all your lunches at the
hot dog carts.
The bosses take your money
And they break your hearts.
Uptown you cater to a million whores.
You disinfect terrazzo on their
bathroom floors.
Your morning's tribulation,
afternoon's a curse
And five o'clock is even worse
That's when you go
Downtown
Where the guys are drips.
Downtown
Where they rip your slips.
Downtown
Where relationships are no go.
Down on skid row!

Down on skid row!
Down on skid row!
Down on skid row!
Poor! All my life I've always been poor.
I keep asking God what I'm for,
and he tells me 'Gee, I'm not sure
sweep that floor, kid.'
Oh, I started life as an orphan,
a child of the street
Here on skid row.
He took me in, gave me shelter, a bed,
Crust of bread and a job
Treats me like dirt, calls me a slob,
Which I am.
So I live
Downtown
That's your home address.
Ya live
Downtown
When your life's a mess.
Ya live
Downtown
Where depressions' just Status Quo.
Down on skid row
Someone show me a way to get outta here,
'cause I constantly pray I'll get outta here
Please, won't somebody say I'll get outta here
Someone give me my shot or I'll rot here
Show me how and I will I'll get out of here
I'll start climbing up hill to get out of here
Someone tell me I still can get outta here
Someone tell Lady Luck that I'm stuck here
Gee, it sure would be swell to get outta here
Bid The Gutter farewell and get outta here
I'd move Heaven and Hell to get outta skid
I'd do I don't know what to get out of skid
Quite a Hell of a lot to get out of skid
People tell me there's not a way out of skid
But believe me I gotta get outa skid
Row!
