We are Poor Little Souls...

We are poor, little souls
Who have lost their way,
To China and India all our
Jobs are outsourced away
And Mexican illegals
Do construction today,
Now, we work in retail
For minimum wage
Which the Republican
Congress refuses to raise,
Though it's a starvation base.
We now are a country
Of the rich and the poor,
Middle classes are lost,
But the politicos
Kept their rich sinecure.
We are poor, little souls
Who have lost their way,
Those Republican fat cats
Took our livelihood away.
