Analysis of America
Aldo Gabbay 1964 (sap paulo)
America was made
For you and me
By God
And we are so lucky
To live in America
There is no war
Here in America
The only thing we have
Is the poor people
Living in the streets
Of America
We need to walk
In there shoes
So we can learn
How bad it is
To be poor
No body bothers
With the poor
People avoid the poor
No body will share
A meal with the poor
Because they are dirty
And smelly
I am lucky that I have
A home to live
