These Days Lyrics

Ain't got much hope left these days

These thoughts go round in my head

The cost of living's got me caught up in a big trap

Ain't got no money these days

The heating bills I can't pay

I'm working two jobs and I'm still getting in debt

What can I do to get out of this mess

The economy's in tatters and the government can't help me

The rich are getting richer, and the poor we just get shafted

While big business makes vast profits on the back of our poverty

They're all trying to ban it

'Cause we're killing the planet

And nation still fighting nation

In the name of human salvation

Ain't got much trust left these days

I don't believe what they say

They publish facts which have no basis in reality

Ain't got much prospect these days

Can't find any work with good pay

Automation's rising and the working man's redundant

What can I do to get out of this mess

The economy's in tatters and the government can't help me

The rich are getting richer, and the poor we just get shafted

While big business makes vast profits on the back of our poverty

What we gonna do about it

What we gonna do about it

Don't let them get away with it

Don't let them get away with it

Don't let them get away with it
