Just trying to work it all out to understand what it's all about Why is there a gap Between rich and poor Those with less Outnumber those with more Why isn/t there enough To feed clothe and cover Why can't we share It all with each other Who made the rules Who stacked the cards Why can't we all Have the whole nine yards 10 percent have 90 90 percent have 10 Somethings got unbalanced With the yang and the yin It's not life and death That's the great divide Its have and have nots But you can't pick a side Why are we fed ads That make us want more When others have less But who's keeping score When did humanity Come last in the race When did wealth Put you in first place In Madagascar you can earn 2 dollars a day But earn a cool mill If you know how to play, It's not much of game though If the rules stacked against you But keep playing there's no choice but o Bob' s song in 65 had
"Mumma in the factory with no shoes Daddy in the alley looking for food" So the times they may be changing But not for the poor It's the other 10 percent That got a whole lot more
