"Upside Down" lyrics

"Upside Down"

I paid two dollars for a nickel candy bar
Gas in my tank cost more than my car
Taxes goin' up, higher all the time
Workin' folks standin' in the welfare line

Upside down
How did it get this way
Upside down
It's a damn dirty shame

Politicians fight like cats and dogs
Wantin' more pork just to feed the hogs
Banks got money when the deal went south
I just want to know who's gonna bail me out

Upside down
How did it get this way
Upside down
It's a damn dirty shame

You can't get credit, ain't it a bitch
Kids need clothes, you can't afford a stitch
No health insurance, better not get sick
But if you do, then you better die quick

Upside down
How did it get this way
Upside down
It's a damn dirty shame

Upside down
World's turned upside down
It's a damn dirty it's a damn dirty
It's a damn dirty shame
