The Power’s Out Flogging Molly

From the town of Detroit where my job is secure, yeah
Secure in the fact now that it's gone for good, yeah
So I'll scrimp and I'll scrape at this pension I saved
So it should be gone by the end of the day

Yeah the power's out
Is there no luck in sight?
Yeah the power's out
Hope it's just for the night
Yeah the power's out
Anothe kick in the head
I'm so poor at this living I'd be richer off...

Wrap me up in your silver then roll me in gold, yeah
Then ice up this whiskey 'til it's nice and cold, yeah
Forgive me for dreaming it's all I have left
Except this pending foreclosure and mountains of debt

Yeah the power's out
Well there's fuck all to see
Yeah the power's out
Like this economy
Yeah the power's out
Guess it's par for the course
Unless you're a blood sucking leech CEO, CEO
