Falling on hard times reoccurs everyday
The constant work cycle leaves us in dismay
Wither through the cracks and find a new way out
Solve a problem today, but tomorrow is in doubt
Disturbing trends of the economy
Distrust looms after years of hypocrisy
Scouring for new reasons to pinch fractions of a cent
Far too long have we remained silent
Feeling the effects at the bottom of the pile
Forcing us to work in exile
Profit never to be seen
Mergers and acquisitions crush us in between
Floating until the next paycheck
Worker bees lacking respect
"Cost of living" to grow the empire
Wait a few more years before you retire
More time spinning in circles than with those who care
Our energy spent fighting hopelessness and despair
Falling into the rut of drudgery
Enjoy what little time is free from enslavery
