Is it your imagination
Are things getting worse?
They say it is inflation
Or a bad curse
They dazzle us with jargon
But I know what’s real to me
It’s one giant con
So we let things be
It’s not the suits in Wall Street
Who’ll solve problems they don’t face
It’s not the local preacher
Who will say who’s behind this mess
It’s not bureaucracy
That will make democracy
The answers, you pursue!
It all starts with you!
No jobs, low wages, precariousness
Forget about $15 and fairness
I do know money’s flowing
From our pockets to the corporate rich
We can’t afford decent housing
But fancy condos are being built
It’s not the suits in Wall Street
Who’ll solve problems that you face
It’s not the local preacher
Who will say who’s behind this mess
It’s not bureaucracy
That will make democracy
Real change, it is due!
It all starts with you!
