Working at a very young age,
trying to help my parents pay the rent
I grew up in the ghetto where we lived day by day
Blue collar worker, no increase in your paycheck
Better not call in sick or your job will be at stake
We are trying to survive in this fucking world we live in
Working class youth, working hard to make it through
Working every day, low paying jobs we get
A beer just to forget
This is your life!
Some of us go to school, try to make it through
White collar fucking worker, like a robot goes to work
Two weeks vacation a year, you have it made in this world
You better keep up the payments of that car and house you bought
We are trying to survive in this fucking world we live
Working class youth working hard to make it through
My mothers sick in bed, doctor bill has to be paid
Another ticket for speeding and the judge won't hear my pleas
President's day, Valentines day, don't forget Christmas day
Another fucking holiday created by the buisness man
We're trying to survive in this fucking world we live
Working class youth working hard to make it through
