The rich and powerful
Use the poor and middle class
As pawns
For their own ammusment
The don't care if we live or die
They laugh
As they watch us fight

The rich and powerful
Think they own us
Like we're toys
To be used at their will

They think they control us
Like puppets on a string
To dance
As they wish
To do
As they bid

The rich and powerful
Fail to see
They are as human
As you and me

They think because of their wealth
Because of their power
They can look down on us
Like we are nothing
Like we are bugs to be squashed
Under their feet
