Bank Account Lyrics


I work hard for what I got, I give my all and that's a lot

For 40 hours or more a week, oh Lord I feel so cheap

I got no money in my bank account.

Everybody deserves food to eat, water to drink and a place to sleep

No hoops to jump through or quotas to upkeep

I got no money in my bank account.

You say get a job, well they won't hire me

They're always looking for reasons to fire me

Nothing to stop them from discriminating on me based on my identity

I got no money in my bank account

The cop pulled me over and gave me a ticket

I wanted to show that road pirate where to stick it

My car is falling apart and I can't afford to fix it

I got no money in my bank account.

For your paycheck you give your time

and a little bit of your knees and spine

No matter now much you're suffering you gotta pretend you're fine

I got no money in my bank account

Representatives are writing bills

Pouring our tax-dollars into a class war with no chill

These out of touch fools will get us all killed

I got no money in my bank account

The 1% treat the poor like they don't matter

while they grift our surplus labor value on a silver platter

If we all join the battle we can kick the legs out of the corporate ladder

We got no money in our bank accounts.

You got no choice, but freedom to choose,

You either participate or lose.

But it doesn't have to be this way, be gay and do crime is what I say

I don't need money in my bank account.
