spare key

They changed the lockBefore you got your stuff

Said thirty daysApparently that's enough

You rang every numberThey passed you down the line

I said stop explainingYou can stay at mine

Take thisSpare keyDon't make it a thing

They want an addressBefore they'll give you work

Work wants a postcodeBefore they'll put you first

Every little doorwayNeeds another piece of proof

Funny how you need a homeTo prove you need a roof

Take thisSpare keyCome in when you need

Someone did it for meWhen I couldn't get inside

No speech about deservingNo form to fucking sign

So when you're back on your feetDon't hand it back to me

Find somebody locked outGive them the spare key

WHEN EVERY DOOR SAYS NOWE MAKE ANOTHER WAYNO CREDIT CHECKNO WAITING LISTNO FUCKING FORM TO SAYWHO GETS TO COME INSIDEWHO GETS LEFT IN THE STREETIF THEY KEEP CHANGING LOCKSWE'LL KEEP CUTTING KEYS

Keep itSpare keySomeone else might need it
