Inflation
Inflation, I tell you.
Back in my day, happiness was a stuffed bear,
Or finishing an ice cream before it melted down your arm.
And you came back with change.
Now it takes a life loan, entire people involved.
Might as well cost a first-born.
I hear they make it over-seas now, for pennies a day,
But I'm sure not paying any less for it.
Maybe if they subsidised it, like a good government,
I could afford three square smiles a day.
Hell, one would be nice.
I'll just have to work a second job
To afford being able to afford things.
That **** inflation,
Always driving up the price.
