Staying Down - Paul Howells
I'm feeling poor, it's worse now that before
And the top's still making more
They stay untried, and yet feel vilified
Won't take that deep hard look inside
We're meant to pay for their excess
While they're taking more and giving less
They own their air that's jerking us around
They're going up and we're staying down.
Should be feeling free, cuz it's not up to me,
And your life is not a guarantee
So we're preaching pride, cuz we are on your side
Your income is your to decide
You'd got to work hard for sucess
Cuz we're taking more and giving less
We own the air that's jerking you around
We're going up and you're staying down
So don't forget who made this mess
by taking more and giving less
They own the air that's jerking us around
They're going up and we're stayin
They're going up and we're stayin
They're going up and we're stayin down.
And the top's still making more
They stay untried, and yet feel vilified
Won't take that deep hard look inside
We're meant to pay for their excess
While they're taking more and giving less
They own their air that's jerking us around
They're going up and we're staying down.
Should be feeling free, cuz it's not up to me,
And your life is not a guarantee
So we're preaching pride, cuz we are on your side
Your income is your to decide
You'd got to work hard for sucess
Cuz we're taking more and giving less
We own the air that's jerking you around
We're going up and you're staying down
So don't forget who made this mess
by taking more and giving less
They own the air that's jerking us around
They're going up and we're stayin
They're going up and we're stayin
They're going up and we're stayin down.
