Houselessness Is Not a Crime

Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
Police, let people sleep in peace
Harassing houseless people must cease
Don't enforce immoral laws
Never ticket people for sleeping in cars
Never ticket someone for sleeping in a tent
Just so "landowners" can get rich collecting rent
Imagine getting woken up by a flashlight
That could make anyone feel fright
Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
Sleep wherever you want
Earth is our home
All of us should be free to roam
Houselessness is not a crime
Don't harass people just to make a dime
That's a terrible way to spend your precious time
You wouldn't like it if somebody woke up you
Harassing people is an awful thing to do
Houselessness is not a crime
Police, please do not be mean
Everybody needs a chance to dream
If your supervisor asks you to wake people up, say ya quit
Find another way to fill your cup
Keep your expenses low
So you can quit if your boss asks you to go do something that is evil
The whole system needs an upheaval
We all need to sleep—agreed?
Don't criminalize a basic human need just to target the vulnerable and poor
When ya bother the houseless, ya know that you're not making the world a better place
Harassing people is a disgrace
Ya can't ban people from sleeping on the street or resting their legs when they need a seat
Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
Some people don't wanna spend money on rent
Capitalism is a failed experiment
Houselessness is not a crime
By the way, we all need access to a sink
To wash our hands, get clean water to drink
A place to defecate, a place to pee
A spot to relax under a shady tree
Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
There's enough for everybody if we share
Let's not be mean
We need to care
About each other everywhere
Help each other out, not just say a prayer
Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
Food and housing are necessities
Necessities should be free
Let's plant fruit trees in every city
Public drinking fountains for you and me
Houselessness is not a crime
Houselessness is not a crime
Rent is theft
Housing should be free
We need a moneyless society
Houselessness is not a crime
