Marketplace

 

Believe Me It's Not Envy Or Petty Jealousy

That Makes Me Despise The Lifestyle

Of Decadence And Wealth

It's True They May Be Sheltered And May Have Never Seen

The Streets Of The Inner City Or Rural Poverty

In The Marketplace

The Myth Of Horatio Algers Can Still Be Found In Books

And Is Taken As The Gospel By The Fortunate Few

If I Had A Prayer I'd Pray For A Voice

And If I Had A Voice

I'd Ask For A Change In The Marketplace (1983)
