david rovics - welcome to the working class كلمات الأغنية
the average annual income of the richest one percent
is about seven hundred grand
the average annual income of the poorest one percent
is a couple food stamps and a pile of sand
smack-dab in the middle, 350 thousand, but that’s actually the top four percent
most everybody else, say, in the bottom eighty
is struggling to pay their mortgage or their rent
you who say you’re in the middle, i wonder what you mean?
in the middle of what and what?
i say you’re probably full of something that hopefully will soon be coming out of your b-tt
i could join you in your fantasy, but i think i’ll have to p-ss
and just say welcome to the working cl-ss
(verse 2)
if you’re wondering how you might send your kids to college
if your savings is smaller than your debt
if your main mode of transport is an auto or a pickup
and not a helicopter or a private jet
if you drive yourself to the supermarket
you know where to find the milk upon the shelf
if you bring the groceries home and then you cook the food all by yourself
if your idea of a night out is ordering a pizza and watching a dvd
if your idea of social mobility is the fact that
you have broadband and a high-definition tv
you can try to convince me that you’re in the bourgeoisie
or you could just stop smoking that gr-ss
welcome to the working cl-ss
welcome, welcome to the working cl-ss
(verse 3)
if half your income’s spent on taxes, no second home on a tropic isle
if flying in economy and renting a car is your notion of vacationing in style
if you’ve never seen the world’s seven wonders
and you think you probably never will
because you only get two weeks holiday each year
and you just don’t have the time to kill
if you think because you’re employed and have a roof over your heads
that you’re so very privileged because your kids sleep in separate beds
but you can’t afford the rest home for your parents
and it’s you whose gotta wipe their -sses
well then welcome to the working cl-ss
