Working at a very young age,   trying to help my parents pay the rent   I grew up in the ghetto where we lived day by day   Blue collar worker, no increase in your paycheck   Better not call in sick or your job will be at stake   We are trying to survive in this fucking world we live in   Working class youth, working hard to make it through      Working every day, low paying jobs we get   A beer just to forget   This is your life!      Some of us go to school, try to make it through   White collar fucking worker, like a robot goes to work   Two weeks vacation a year, you have it made in this world   You better keep up the payments of that car and house you bought   We are trying to survive in this fucking world we live   Working class youth working hard to make it through      My mothers sick in bed, doctor bill has to be paid   Another ticket for speeding and the judge won't hear my pleas   President's day, Valentines day, don't forget Christmas day   Another fucking holiday created by the buisness man    We're trying to survive in this fucking world we live   Working class youth working hard to make it through
