We're not gonna make it
No, we're ain't gonna make it
We're not gonna make it
We're poor!
Our fathers built a life
That won't keep us alive
The world's inflated
To where wage will not survive
If you want to live well then it’s
Off to school for you
Debt will not bring life but
Indentured servitude
What will you do?
What will you do?
What will you do?
When it catches up with you?
What is it for?
What is it for?
What is it for?
Welcome to the working poor
The working poor
Forever more
Forever more!
We are working longer than
They ever did before
Still they call us lazy while
Demanding so much more
We suffer and we struggle
To uphold their status quo
We'll all be playing extras on
The Baby Boomer Show
Where does it go?
Where does it go?
Where does it go?
Yeah, we're all digging this hole!
What is it for?
What is it for?
What is it for?
Welcome to the working poor
The working poor
Forever more
Forever!
