Here We Are

Here we sit in a world of today,
listening to what they have to say,
what was what is and what will be,
a change a new President a new economy, 
as our pockets empty and mouths grow hungry,
prices rise and wall street fall we all see,
they want us to listen and learn from the past,
tomorrows here as we still get taxed,
