Lyrics

What About People Like Us

I know you?ve heard stories about
The rich and poor, what about the in between
Some folks got nothin?, some to much
Then there?s people like you and me
When the last bus around is leaving town
Who you gonna trust
The needy get a ticket
The rich can, buy it
What about people like us?

I know you heard stories about
Political parties, but what about the in between
Wantin? more government, the others less
Then there?s people like you and me
When the last plane around is leaving town
Who you gonna trust, some on the left wing
Some on the right
What about people like us?

Bridge:
They took to callin? us the middle class
The top and the bottom both kickin? our ass
Forgotten souls when the tax bills pass
What about people like us?

I know you?ve heard the stories about
Hell and glory, what about the in between
Some ain?t worth killin? ? then there?s all them to gooders
Then there?s people like you and me
When the last chariot around
Is leaving town who you gonna trust
Some goin? up
Some goin? down
What about people like us?

Repeat Bridge:
They took to callin? us the middle class
The top and the bottom both kickin? our ass
Forgotten souls when the tax bills pass
What about people like us?
