Brake from the 60's and on to the realities of today.
I realized there are no good songs about economic hard times like the ones I grew up with.
Since there are not, I am putting up some of my favourites for your enjoyment.

Hey, you in the corner, stop all the rompty pomty, why know it's bad, but you are causing a baby boom. Look around people, there are pregnant women EVERYWHERE!
Drink and dance instead!
So let's say 'To Hell With Poverty' and get drunk on cheap wine!
This is where the title of the post came from: BAD Bottom Line. Anyone remember the band after the Clash?

i miss the old days of music,... music today.. is like they would sign anyone bye jess
Most of the stuff I put up was not the popular music of the day.
The tops of the pops really stands the tests of time.

Nice to see you Jesse!
