Hoping for me to have a say
Hoping god will help me day after day
All i want is a simple miracle
That will just blow us away
No food to eat
Neither chicken nor meat
Just pieces of bread
To keep us strong for the heat
People becoming sick
Is this supposed to be a trick?
Laughing at our disgrace
Do they have hearts out of brick?
I suppose this is a nightmare
No one out there to really care
We are humans as well you know
This is definitely not fair
No centerlink to give us money
I suppose this seems so funny
We have the bees
And you have the honey
No nice clothes to wear
No one to do our hair
Ha-Ha im laughing
I suppose this is my silly despair?
No laughter to hear, all we do is weep
Not a single place to lie down and sleep
This is an awful life
This is giving me a creep
No internet to use
No $100 shoes
No books to read
No holidays on a cruise
No shows to see
I wish we were free
To live our lives
So happily
No heaters in the cold
No goods to be sold
No ice creams to eat
No toys to hold
This is our life
And thank god we can survive
Because without his help
I don’t know how we are to strive
No shops or towns
No smile just frowns
I suppose this is life
With its ups and downs
