The Lyrics
People struggle along
On Moonlight Pay
Trying to make a decent living
So hard, today..
Need to hold down two jobs
And still no way,
They can even save a dime
On Moonlight Pay
Our economy's wrong
Bush claims okay
Just a fairy tale he's selling,
The words he'll say
Price of gas out of sight
Exxon profits display
Poor folks barely get along
On Moonlight Pay..
On...Moon...Light...Pay....
On Moonlight Pay
Trying to make a decent living
So hard, today..
Need to hold down two jobs
And still no way,
They can even save a dime
On Moonlight Pay
Our economy's wrong
Bush claims okay
Just a fairy tale he's selling,
The words he'll say
Price of gas out of sight
Exxon profits display
Poor folks barely get along
On Moonlight Pay..
On...Moon...Light...Pay....

funny concept..i like it
Thanks, alvin
I agree with you on this, but a lot of people need to learn to live within their means as well. 5's
Bush's claims of an okay economy seem to be falling on deaf ears at Wall Street, AFW - and, relatively speaking, if you want cheap oil prices, best to stay put in the USA - $1.50 per litre here, which would be $6-$7 per gallon I think - 555
Thanks, Lionel, ...very true....and thanks, Stuart...Wow, I gas you're right about that...But, we're headed that way
Nice one AFW, Aus is following your example. As for Stu's comments, I have given up trying to tell people on the messageboard they are better off, comparitively, it is a losing battle. Trouble with your heading our way is that it mans ours just goes higher still :( Good parody though :)
