Poverty
Verse 1
Money comes
Rents are high
Money goes
Balances fly
Chorus
Enslaved to poverty
Gagged and bound
Day to day living
No cash around
Verse 2
Power meters spin
Faster than money earned
Keep the light on
Savings burnt
Verse 3
Tanks are dry
Fuel costs soar
Driving impossible
Door to door
Bridge
No food on the table
No medicine in the cupboard
No gifts for children
No sign of support
No hiding from the stress
Chorus
Enslaved to poverty
Gagged and bound
Day to day living
No cash around
Chorus
Enslaved to poverty
Gagged and bound
Day to day living
No cash around
