In the current state of financial instability
With half the population slipping into poverty
And an all round feeling of insecurity
Its enough to make a strong man cry
It would be easy to rob, steel and commit crime
But we know it will get better given time
Were just waiting for an encouraging sign
But if the odd tear is shed you will understand why
With a picture of worry drawn on his face
Because of the state of the human race
A vision of comfort there is no trace
If he had wings it would be easy to just take off and fly
But he has a sense of responsibility
With a desire to provide for his family
And put the dreams of easier times into reality
Like a medieval worrier to the death he will try
So in time we will look back upon these days
With a feeling of respect in many ways
And make sure that when wealth comes, it stays
Walking proud with our heads held as high as the sky
