Bon Jovi's, "Livin' On A Prayer"
The Lyrics:
Tommy used to work on the docks.
Union's been on strike.
He's down on his luck. It's tough.
So tough.
Why:
The song starts with the story of a man being out of work and the rest of the song tells of how he and his girl try to cope with the reduced wages.

Bon Jovi's, "You Give Love A Bad Name"
The Lyrics:
Shot through the heart, and you're to blame,
You give love a bad name.
Why:
Self explanatory. The verses even explain to the subject woman why she ain't so good.
