I sit here with notice in hand
I must get out the Bank demands

I've paid for almost twenty years
today fullfills my greatest fears

I'm forced to go out on the street
the Bank won't miss a single beat

It's not only this loss that makes me sad
I feel like a failure as a dad

The bills have piled so very high
The more they come the more I try

This burden is so very great
They didn't explain the mortgage rate

They said remortgage pay some debt
The rate variable was not set

Before I knew it rates went up so high
I asked the reason they wouldn't tell me why 

Time is short I have to leave in a week
With little money an apartment to seek

Yet somehow determined to find a way
So I can find a home where we can stay
