For some it means they are behind on the rent,
For others it's out onto the streets ...
Recession ...
It lowers the pay,
And raises the debt,
It makes money "The Issue"

And sends them scurrying to find new jobs,
Where there are none to be found ...

And the news every hour ...
Every channel, every station,
Every single one ...

For everyone feels it ...
It hits you where it hurts the most ...
