Oh poverty, you're so great, A badge of honor, a wonderful state. You bring us joy, and endless stress, A life of struggle, we truly assess. Your benefits are many, we all agree, No savings, no security, just live paycheck to paycheck, you'll see. You'll dine on ramen, and wear worn-out shoes, But hey, at least you'll have a roof, most days, you'll choose. So let's all cheer, and give a round, For the thrill of living on the financial ground. Poverty, you're a treasure, a gem so rare, We wouldn't trade you, for all the world's wealth to share.

Poverty the unwanted Hero
Oh poverty, you're so great, A badge of honor, a wonderful state. You bring us joy, and endless stress, A life of struggle, we truly assess. Your benefits are many, we all agree, No savings, no security, just live paycheck to paycheck, you'll see. You'll dine on ramen, and wear worn-out shoes, But hey, at least you'll have a roof, most days, you'll choose. So let's all cheer, and give a round, For the thrill of living on the financial ground. Poverty, you're a treasure, a gem so rare, We wouldn't trade you, for all the world's wealth to share.
For those struggling financially.
