Did that song really need explanation to anyone?
Having grown up poor and suffering all that goes with it I totally get the songwriters indignance & I also get why it tugs at the hearts of everyone trampled on by the system such that it is, but what I don't get is your HAHAHA. Why is poverty funny? I don't get the glee, are you one of those wealthy people who walk by homeless and tell them to just, "Get a job?"
I like the song, it is unifying across all the idiotic banners.
This song speaks to the same demographic as the late, great George Carlin, "It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club"
Well obviously the author of the song thinks it did seeing as how he took the time to give one. Further, I don't think the purpose of the song was to unite across all "idiotic" banners. Just sayin.
But what's funny is the misinterpreting it on the part of certain individuals and Fox crowd as being anti certain people when in fact it was anti them too. If you really think I'd tell someone to get a job, well then. You haven't been paying attention the last 17 years have you?
