I got nothin’ and nothin’ to lose
I run around in circles and I don’t know what to do
I wake up in the mornin’ and I put on the news
And it’s all Global Economic Meltdown Blues
Gotta take it as it comes, you can’t pick and choose
They come marching down the street Bantu gurus with kazoos
Ain’t got a job, can’t afford a cruise
I got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
(Chorus)
Global Economic Meltdown Blues
When you ain’t got nothin’ you got nothin’ to lose
Can’t find a job, too worried to snooze
I got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
Used and abused I stand and accuse
Screwed, blued and tattooed for holding rational views
Hindus and Hebrews and Scooby Doos
We got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
It’s driving me to drink, I’m a hittin’ the booze
I’m losing my grip and I’m not much amused
I been screwed and abused by greedy yahoos
I got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
(Chorus)
Global Economic Meltdown Blues
When you ain’t got nothin’ you got nothin’ to lose
Can’t find a job, too worried to snooze
I got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
I once had a job where I paid my dues
I had a house, a gnu and my own pair of shoes
If asked for a thing I would never refuse
Before the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
Now I’m bruised, confused and without an excuse
Hoodoos and hairdos and slews of miscues
Boos and brews and how-do-you-dos
I got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
(Chorus)
Global Economic Meltdown Blues
When you ain’t got nothin’ you got nothin’ to lose
Can’t find a job, too worried to snooze
I got the Global Economic Meltdown Blues
