Behind on payments
Wage enslavement
But at least I haven't got
My behind on a pavement
But I'm only just making wages
This is my lament
Lament
I know you're struggling
I know
The weight on your shoulders
Is hard to bare
I know you're drowning
I've heard
The waves crashing down
On your head
The weight of the ocean I feel in my sleep
Can't reach the surface I'm in too deep
I pray the Lord my family I keep
From being consumed by the heavy heaps
As I try to move with the tide
Sharks circle but I can't hide
The waves are taking us all on a ride
This is the reality in which I reside
How much?
Drown much?
My feet are tangled in brown mulch
At the bed of a sea of pounds love
I can't even meet in town for lunch
I'm a sorry old state
Keep borrowing from mates
They've stopped answering my calls of late
That's if I'm even flush enough for calls to make
Less pay as you go, more like go if you can pay
I should be going to the bank to withdraw my cash
Not going to a bank to see what sort of cans
I can feed my kids
At their age
I did Nothing like this
Man, I thought my quids
That I get from nursing all these mental hours
In an environment hectic and dour
Would comfortably pay our way now a sour
Taste is left in my mouth
but its the only thing I've eaten in hours
Somebody tell these people in power
Or are they still hiding away like cowards?
I know you're struggling
I know
The weight on your shoulders
Is hard to bare
I know you're drowning
I've heard
The waves crashing down
On your head
Their Scott free education
Enabled them to get into a situation
Where they can force me to pay for mine
And make out like we can still provide
Convincing us we can't afford a library
While they can fly very far with tools
And drop bombs on some primary schools
Bribery rules
Those so called allies of yours
Will make you pay for an empty room
And if you feel confused
They'll get their dudes
In red tops to spell it out for you
Where to cast votes
Make the fat bloat
If they sack boats
Wear high-vis coats
Or sit inside a Palace with a moat
I know you're drowning
I've felt
The waves crashing down
You see?
I'm drowning too
Hold on
I'm drowning too
I'm drowning too
Hold on
I'm drowning too
Hold on
I'm drowning too
Hold on
I'm drowning too
Hold on
