And we're living
In Calcutta
With one foot in the grave
And the other
In the gutter
I bet you dream in black and white
Sleep quietly and soft at night
Wake up ready to fight the fight
I suppose it's easy
When you're right
And we're living
In Calcutta
With one foot in the grave
And the other
In the gutter
Pull yourself up to full height
Enjoy your privilege and birthright
Ready to rise and fight the fight
I suppose it's easy
When you're right
And we're living
In Calcutta
With one foot in the grave
And the other
In the gutter
And we're living
In Calcutta
With one foot in the grave
And the other
In the gutter
In the gutter
(In Calcutta)
In the gutter
(With one foot in the grave)
In the gutter
(And the other)
In the gutter
