My generation is constantly broke From the American Dream we were violently awoke Drowning in debt and justified fear Once in a lifetime recessions every couple of years Hallelujah, I'm a Bum Hallelujah, Bum again Come and give us a handout to revive us again You're telling me I live in the land of the free But I'm trapped in a cage of systematic poverty Just to survive takes all that I've got Just so some jerk can have his 27th yacht Hallelujah, I'm a bum Hallelujah, bum again Come and give us a handout to revive us again No matter how hard I work I make a starvation wage So I'll be funded by the state like the wars that we wage The most lavish of lifestyle of the most upper crust bum Doesn't cost but a fraction of their drone striking bombs Hallelujah, I'm a bum Hallelujah, I'm a bum No cop is a good cop No war is ever won I'll bleed the state for all that their worth Cuz you've been suckin' silver spoons since the day of your birth If the wealthy would pay even half their fair share The rest of us might have a little health care Hallelujah I'm a bum Hallelujah, bum again Nothing else matters but me and my friends We've all been out of work for months and for months They gave us $1200 and they said best of luck But I got approved for that PUA It's probably a bad sign it's the most I've ever made Hallelujah I'm a bum Hallelujah I'm a bum again Come and give us another stimulus to stimulate us again Well the whole worlds on fire, a big pile of shambles So I figure it's a good time to head out and ramble Took my hard earned unemployment and bought myself a truck I'll live life on the road cuz I don't give a damn Hallelujah I'm a bum Hallelujah, I'm a bum Don't ask where I'm goin', don't ask where I'm from The wealthy run the game, all liars and cheats Before I sell my soul I will live on the streets These systems and structures, they're all rigged and wrong I'm not playin' along, I am no king's pawn Hallelujah, I'm a Bum Hallelujah, I'm a bum You might have more money but I have more fun I don't want you pity, I'm not askin' for a favor But I want an end to exploited labor And a deconstruction of scarcity and greed To rebuild based on meeting everyone's needs Hallelujah, I'm a bum Hallelujah, bum again Come and give us a hand out to revive us again
