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
