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
