Family of Four - Muncie Girls

I could read my weight in sociological or historical postulates and they

wouldn’t care at all

Maybe my mistake was in expecting dignity;

Thinking that the welfare state would support someone like me

They said it’s all they can afford and I can’t argue

I missed my chance to

But I’ve got a family of four and no other means to go out and buy food

They said it’s all they can afford and I can’t argue

I missed my chance to

But I’ve got a family of four and no other means to go out and buy food

I know enough to know when someone’s looking down on me.

Brainwashed by the

Tories are the staff at the DWP

Maybe my mistake was in expecting dignity;

Thinking that the welfare state would support someone like me

They said it’s all they can afford and I can’t argue

I missed my chance to

But I’ve got a family of four and no other means to go out and buy food

They said it’s all they can afford and I can’t argue

I missed my chance to

But I’ve got a family of four and no other means to go out and buy food

Oh well.

I grew up powerless and I’ll die just the same

I’ll go from the afternoon to the nightshift all for someone else’s gain.

Bottom rung is where I’ll stay
