Story behind the song

The Ontario Harris government policies and corporate business impact on the social structure as I saw it on Toronto streets.

Lyrics

Rain
Falling down
On the ground
Of this dirty town
Sounds
To be found
All around
These hunting grounds

Even though we come and go
We stretch and sew trying to
Understand the flow

As we stare through the keyholes
And I want to know why the thoughts are on bankrolls

But you know there are other ways
To rock n’ roll
These lost and lonely days

As we walk by the station
Through streets littered with post budget clutter

But you know there are other ways
To go these lost
These lost and lonely days
A slice of life well buttered
Rain
