The yuppie in his brand new Beemer
A slick Wall Street trading schemer
The wife in her bright stiletto pumps
A bum’s luck is down in the dumps
The yuppies see a simple solution
A coalition of corporate collusion
The bum sees evil greed
A sole cause of people in need
The yuppie points out all the bum’s sins
A cause and effect of all the wrong friends
The bum alludes to the yuppie’s schemes
A lucky connection with successful genes
The blame sees no social side
A fact of life or downward slide
The finger pointing strains the facts
A major cause of foundation’s cracks
The yuppie closes his eyes to sleep
A bum on a bus bench starts to weep
