Carsie Blanton - Rich People

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1993987
Seems like bad news all of the time
We got floods and fires and wars and crime
They try to tell me who I ought to blame
But I know who it is cus it's always the same

Don't be ashamed if you get confused
When you talk to your friends or you watch the news
They try tell you where it all went wrong
Now you don't have to argue just sing this song, it was

Rich people, stackin the deck
Rich people with big fat checks
Rich people, they're havin a ball
Rich people been fuckin us all

Back in 1979
The wеstern world was in decline
So, Ronald Rеgan and Thatcher too
They fixed it right up, but not for you

Just for: rich people, stackin the deck
Rich people with big fat checks
Rich people, havin a ball
Rich people been fuckin us all

Who run the world?
It ain't the jews
Rich people don't pay no dues
Who did the crime?
It ain't the blacks
Rich people don't pay no taxes
Who took your job?
It ain't immigration
It's rich people with corporations
Who threw the vote?
It ain't rednecks
Rich people with big fat checks
Rich people, stackin the decks
Rich people with big fat checks
Rich people, havin a ball
Rich people been fuckin us all

"Carsie Blanton's song "Rich People" is a satirical take on the current state of the world, pointing fingers at those in power who seem to be causing all the chaos. Blanton sings about floods, fires, wars, and crime, and how the blame always seems to fall on the same group of people - the rich. The lyrics suggest that the wealthy are the ones stacking the deck, benefiting from the system at the expense of others. Blanton references historical figures like Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, who supposedly "fixed" the world for the rich, not the average person. The chorus repeats the refrain of how rich people have been taking advantage of the rest of society, not paying their dues or taxes and leaving others to suffer. Blanton calls out the unfairness of the system, highlighting how the wealthy seem to be in control and benefiting at the expense of everyone else."
