when you are a wage earner

When you are a wage earner

You have to plan how to save what to spend

You have a limited choices of tastes and needs

The years ahead need planning as well

When you are single earning a living

You can save and satisfy certain benefits

But in the long term you have to save

For tomorrow can be cruel in life

Once you have nothing to save

Sickness will come to break your will

Problems will arise pushing you down

You sit down and really think hard

When you are a wage earner

You can't fly first class

You know how it is

You can only dream in your head

When you are a wage earner

The scope will not be high

Unless you turn to run your own business

The risks are high; it takes gut to do it

But not many dare to venture the unknown

They stay where they are with steady income and employment

Though they may dream about the luxuries of life

In reality they stay where they are and be contented
