24, 101, 5-80 Another nightmare morning commute to the city New generation, same factory floor Only good for taxes, votes and war Everyone is leaving, looking for a way out So sick and tired, living hand to mouth Yeah, we keep on giving but they always want more Was working class, now I'm working poor They're building a future that's not for me No life, no happiness, no Liberty Stuffed in the back of the transit train, I feel my life slowly slip away Good for taxes, votes and war, new generation, same factory floor Work and dignity, means nothing to them, but it's everything to me Yeah, we keep on giving but they always want more From working class to working poor Another day down the drain, I got nothing to show I got a pocket full of nothing, I got nowhere to go Yeah, they're building a future that's not for me I'm a ghost from the past in this shell of a city My slumlord landlord I've never even met I'm worked to the bone, still cripped by debt It's a white knuckle ride going nowhere fast I'm on a dead end street down a one way track They're building a future that's not for me No Life, No Happiness, No Liberty Stuffed in the back of the transit train, I feel my life slowly slip away Good for taxes, votes and war, new generation, same factory floor Work and dignity, means nothing to them, but it's everything to me Yeah, we keep on giving but they always want more From working class to working poor Stuffed in the back of the transit train, I feel my life slowly slip away Good for taxes, votes and war, new generation, same factory floor Work and dignity, means nothing to them, but it's everything to me Yeah, we keep on giving but they always want more From working class to working poor From working class to working poor From working class to working poor From working class to working poor From working class to working poor From working class to working poor
