Your rating:
The shops where filled with things that I could buy But the prices up them all the guns got high Don't suppose they're gonna drop Gotta get used to the charity shop Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Seems like only yesterday food was so cheap Now the cost of... goes up every week So you search for the best deeds Have to miss out on some leaves Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Get that first foot on the ladder they all say They know there's no way Ain't no bank that's gonna lend They got bonuses to spend Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Comfort house is something I would never get Put my name down on the list I'm waiting yet So I'm renting my... landlords profiting on me Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Getting round is getting harder everyday Used to drive a car but lately there's no way Trains are only for the rich And the buses are the rich Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live And the doctors don't' come out no more at night They won't treat you if the think you don't live right Well they privatize the rest Soon there'll be no energies Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Keeping war is something poor folks cannot do Cause the oilmen need to drive a yacht nor too The companies may go as the pensioners may come Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live Just tell me how can poor men Stand such times and live
