about

I heard once that a recession is when your neighbor loses his job, and a depression is when you lose yours.

lyrics

Spare a dime for a starving architect? They won't build my bridges; they won't build my concert halls.
At the Academy they all said that my work was great, so what's wrong?
What went wrong?

It's not right that a guy like me should wind up on the street.

Can't you see that I'm highly qualified? I shouldn't be here; there must be some kind of terrible mistake.
I work hard, I play hard, I eat hard, I drink hard: hey man, I've done everything right, so what's wrong?
What went wrong?

It's not right that I'm stuck here and you're up there and I'm still here.
No, it's not right that a guy like me should wind up on the street.
