POCKETS VOID OF GREEN I can’t afford to eat lunch Though I’m counted on not to starve I can’t afford these breakdowns Nor a better car I can’t afford to make money With the money that it takes I can’t afford to mend my wallet So the bills they all escape I can’t afford healthcare Or the treatment I’m prescribed I can’t afford life insurance So I better stay alive I can’t afford a lawyer To get back what is mine I can’t afford a handgun To commit a petty crime
