A PLACE TO CALL HOME
OJO 2004

Can I ask you a question
is it so that you don't trust me yet
you should know me pretty well by now
and that I would never try to fool you
what's necessary that is what I will ask you for
nothing less and nothing more

You can help someone
it won't cost so much
just give a little bit of your luck

Can I ask you a question
is it really so that you don't care at all
or is it so that you don't understand
that there are some young people running wild
and that they need a place where they can slow down
and learn how to live a normal life
can't you see every lost child in your own town
desperately seeking for any kind of love

Can I ask you a question
are you willing to support me with my project
or are you just a reckless person
who won't redress those who are weak and helpless
can't you see that they need a place to call home
a safe place where they can hide from the adventures
and the danger out on the hard street
please don't act like a stranger my friend
give from your great wealth
and you will never regret that you gave us help

Can I ask you a question
has your heart turned into stone
and do you really know how it is like
to be all alone
and how it feels like
to go to sleep under a plastic sheet
without anything to eat
and if you want some new shoes
you have to kill the man who owns them
because the wearer is the keeper
don't you ever think about those poor kids
on the street
without no real hope to cling to

Can I ask you one last question
or have you already got tired of my asking
and wish me the hell away
here it comes
GIVE ME YOUR SUPPORT
so we can build a brand new home for the young ones
