[Verse 1]
Cold, cold eyes upon me they stare
People all around me and they're all in fear
They don't seem to want me but they won't admit
I must be some kind of creature up here having fits

[Verse 2]
From my body house, I'm afraid to come outside
Although I'm filled with love I'm afraid that they'll hurt my pride
So I'll play the part I feel they want of me
And I pull the shades so I won't see them seein' me

[Chorus]
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
(Hard times, hard times, hard times)

[Verse 3]
From my body house, I see like me, another
Familiar face, a creed and race, a brother
But to my surprise, I find a man corrupt
Although he be my brother, he wants to hold me up

[Chorus]
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
[Chorus]
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found

[Outro]
Hard times, hard times, hard times
Hard times, hard times, hard times
Hard times, hard times, hard times
Hard times, hard times, hard times

Hard times, hard times, hard times
Hard times, hard times, hard times
