A
Every day I got the blues - I don’t want to say it
A
But when I see the news - I got to say
G A
What the fuck ... what the fuck is going on
A
The economy is starting to crash
A
They say there’s a crisis of credit and cash
G A
And the bankers and the brokers they take the money and run
D
But where do we go - Fools like me
F#m
I’m working hard - Trying to raise a family
Bm
They to say to invest - But it always goes down
E
And I’m left with nothing - But that sucking sound
A
It’s the sound of the hole - where my money goes
A
And the billionaires if you think they care
G
Well then you believe in Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny
A
And the checks in the mail
A
There’s something wrong here and I don’t know what
A
But I got a feeling down deep in my gut
G A
There’s one big Ponzi scheme all over the world
D
They’re giving us crumbs - Saying we should be proud
F#m
To be part of a system - That will always allow
Bm
You to succeed if you work very hard
E
But I don’t believe it cause they’re holding all the cards
A
And who are they - I don’t even know
A
Is that really your neighbor - On a reality show?
G A
Well my reality looks nothing like that
A
And I’m not choosing sides - Not the left or the right
A
I’m so sick of politicians - And the way that they fight
G A
They must think that we’re stupid - Well maybe we are
D
But maybe we’re good - Down deep in our souls
F#m
The way we take care of the sick and the old
Bm
I see the children in my children’s eyes
E
But I walk around scared and I don’t know why
D
Scared to die before I live
F#m
Will I have something left to give?
E
To give my son a better world
A
While mother earth is still a girl
D
Damn my fear
F#m
Damn my pride
E
Damn my prejudice
E
Open my heart
E
Open my mind
E
Give me strength when it comes my time
A
I’m not religious I don’t go to church
A
Except for my meetings But Jesus Christ
G A
If he was here today I think he’d be mad as hell
A
What the fuck is going on
A
What the fuck is going on
A
What the fuck is going on
