Gotta Make A Living

Enough disappointment
Give em' what they need more gainful employment
No more scrounging to pay rent
Between the cushions like the difference gonna make sense
Don't you offer up jobs
Paying macho money to suppress all the mobs
Keep em' hooked on the bomb
Keep em' running round running round like a clown

Stop making no sense
Got all your faith stuck up idle in the government
While people robbing to pay rent
Breathing in cancer asleep on the pavement
I bet you see the warnings now
News everyday passed around in the free crowd
It's in the headlines and papers all screaming out loud but y'all blissfully all got your blinds down

But you gotta make a living
No, I hear what you say
And that all will be forgiven
When you're off on your way

Enough unemployment
Talking with your mouth but you don't get the point yet
We all stare at the same vets
Homeless on the street living life in a toilet
While you pay for your own fence
Locking up non-violents while their families are living in tents
Smiling eyes are uneasy
Clowning everyday with the keys to be sleazy

But you gotta make a living
No, I hear what you say
And that all will be forgiven
When you’re off on your way

And that all will be forgiven
Know I hear what you say
That you gotta make a living
Anyway everyday
