Hunter Gatherer Blues

[Verse 1:] I woke up this morning, the rent was overdue, My landlord's knockin', what am I supposed to do? No berries in my basket, just bills that grew and grew. [Chorus:] Oh, I got the hunter gatherer blues, In this market maze, I always lose, Trading my time for shoes. [Verse 2:] I hunted for a job, but the jobs were all gone, Gathered my patience, but it's wearing thin, it's worn. I just want to fish, but I can't find the dawn. [Chorus:] Oh, I got the hunter gatherer blues, In this market maze, I always lose, Trading my dreams for a snooze. [Verse 3:] I went to the market, prices high as the sky, My wallet felt so empty, it could make a grown man cry. Gathered my coupons, but they said, "Nice try." Chorus: Oh, I got the hunter gatherer blues, In this market maze, I always lose, Trading my peace for a ruse. Outro: So here I am singing, trying to make some sense, Of how to survive, under all this financial fence. Got the hunter gatherer blues, it’s my self-defense. [outro]
