It's The Oldies Fault Again.

Goldfinch60



 

So it’s our fault again!

Us Oldies!

Still living in the house

That we bought many years ago,

They say it is too big for us

At our time of life,

We need to move,

Move to something smaller.

So that the youngsters can move on.

They cannot afford to buy any more

As the people with the money

Build houses out of the price range

Of most people.

They sit there

In their castles in the air

Just fuelling their greed

From the hard times they are creating,

For those trying to stay alive.
