I'll send the bullets shooting back your way I'll give my life from day to day Ain't got no work, I got bills to pay I don't give a damn, keep out of my way I had a job once, a happy family But now they're gone and I'm ok I used to love life, now I've gone astray Is this the price that I must pay Welfare warrior I walk the streets now, my home is on my back The sky is clear, my mind is black A welfare warrior, fighting to survive I need a job to stay alive I'll fight the system, I won't go down this way You brought me here, so now you pay I'm not a broken man, I must have my say It's tough out here, get out of my face Welfare warrior I sleep in the spotlight My clothes are ripped and torn Oh, I use the leaves to keep me warm Love's left the gods of war The government must fall Let chaos reign to end it all I had a job once, a happy family But now they're gone and I'm ok I used to love life, now I've gone astray Is this the price that I must pay Welfare warrior Get out of my way I'm a welfare warrior
