Top 100 Homeless Songs
Song #79
UFO
|
Some of their best-known songs include "Doctor Doctor", "Rock Bottom", "Natural Thing", "Lights Out", "Too Hot to Handle" and "Only You Can Rock Me". UFO are considered one of the greatest classic hard rock acts and often cited as one of the key influences on the 1980s and 1990s hard rock and heavy metal scenes. The band were ranked number 84 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock".
"I'm A Loser," is from the bands 1976 album No Heavy Petting and is a song about homelessness and desperation; vocalist and lyricist Phil Mogg is a Londoner born and bred, and his reference to Euston Station "cold as ice" where "all night specials" move you on, is obviously based on personal observation. This is one of the places in Central London frequented by runaways, winos, down-and-outs and all manner of people who have ended up on the streets for a plethora of reasons.

"I'm a Loser"
Lyrics
Last train's eleven, it's now quarter past
Why are you trying to make the evening move so fast
I'm in real trouble but I can't go back home
They locked the doors and I'm left out alone
[Chorus]
You can come to my place and sleep on the couch
Lots of people do it and we won't leave you out
Hard times out on the Street
Hard times, hard to beat
The painted lies they all hand you
I'm a loser on the road
I'm a loser on the road, yeah
Huston station and it's cold as ice
All night specials, they move you on
But me and Ginger over there
We got this thing where we really take care
[Chorus]
I'm a loser, I'm a loser
I'm a loser
We are busy adding more songs relating to homelessness all the time
