Work Is Hard To Find

Work Is Hard to Find When you have to spend All your time Studying as a poor college student Day in and Day out Never knowing where You will be going Or the path that lies ahead for you You are grateful That you have three meals a day Even if you get them By government loans When you do not own a car Or have any say in the way That your life is because The government decides for you How much they think You do or do not need in loans All based on your parent’s income They do not know about their bills Or the pressure they have It kills them late at night when they are sleeping It haunts you too when you are weeping However, there is hope if you make it Taking the long route in college for there are grants to be given You wake up one morning and there is Enough money to cover all your costs in the fall Although I can not count on it and the fear Is here approaching That Obama will disappoint us all
