Bad Time to Be Poor

Tim Vesely
It is a bad time to be poor,
'Cause we don't give a shit no more.

If you want to go for help, don't look next door.
The line's been drawn and staked outside.
I see to trying to lay the blame
On the folks in charge who hide in shame
For growing up with an open purse,
And learning not about being alive.
Haven't I done enough to burn out?
Haven't I been there to help out?
It is a bad time to be young.
What's left to us can't be undone
Without it riding on our backs
When young and poor go hand in hand.

What's left to us can't be undone
Without it riding on our backs
When young and poor go hand in hand.
It is a bad time to be poor,
And feeling winter through a crack in the door.
