Break the Circle

[Verse 1]
Lady in Albania works for fifty cents a day
Like her momma's momma did
And if she tried to leave
They'd surely shoot her dead
Right here in my own backyard
There's a little boy who's face is scarred
His daddy says he fell from a tree, ooh
'Cause that's what his own daddy said
When that little boy was he

[Chorus 1]
Break, break the circle
Break, break the circle
Break the circle, break the circle

[Verse 2]
Mr. Smith he's never there
But nobody seems to care
Mrs. Smith wears diamond rings
And the kids are busy playing with their precious things

[Chorus 1]
Break, break the circle
Break, break the circle
Break the circle, break the circle
That binds us to our destiny

[Refrain]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ohh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ohh

[Bridge]
I ask a child on the bus
What will you be when you grow up?
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ohh)

He said I'll do what my daddy does
Stay at home in bed and get my money every month

[Chorus 2]
Break
Break the circle
Break

[Refrain]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ohh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ohh

[Chorus 3]
Ohh, break the circle
Break the circle
Break the circle
That binds us to our destiny
