What this life is all about
You think it's the dope I smoke, yeah
See, I'm putting it out, tell you
Things are getting dread
Hunger is gonna kill some people dead
Prices gon' out of reach
Even the preacher can't afford to preach
The cost of the living is running away
White squall is here to stay
And rising, uprising, up more every day
That I am forced to say
You think it's a joke, it's no joke
What this life is all about
You think it's the dope that I smoke, well
See, I'm putting it out, tell you
Things are really bad
A lot of people are going mad
They can't make the mortgage rate
And that's stirring up a lot of hate
The children are absent from school every day
More teachers can-a get no pay
The health of the nation is under decay
The doctors and nurses say
You think it's a joke, you think it's a joke
You think it's a big, it's a big, it's a joke
I'm not laughing, no, no, no, no
I ain't scared and it ain't pretty
You think it's a joke, it's no joke
What this life is all about
You think it's the dope I smoke, well
See, I'm putting it out, tell you
Things have gotten out of hand
Somebody's gonna give a count
Where is the one with the master plan?
I walk my pain, the full amount
The harder I work is the poorer I get
That don't make no sense to me
I'm getting so skinny, the weight that I
Hunger is an offence to me
You think it's a joke, you think it's a joke
You think it's a big, it's a big, it's a joke
I'm not laughing, no, no, no, no..
