Lyrics
Falling down around you are your dreams
And all your broken plans
Just don't blame yourself, what can you do?
You know it's out of your hands

When people's jobs are "a price worth paying"
To keep down the prices that no one's paying
And the people whose shoulders the blame falls upon
Tell you it's over when it's barely begun

In recessionland
In a place where the worst is the best you can hope for
Recessionland
In a place everyday is the same as the last one

"We're not out of touch"; said with their heads
Buried deep in the sand
It can't get any worse, but I'm sure it will
When it's in their capable hands

When people's lives are "a price worth paying"
To increase investments that no one's making
And the people whose shoulders the blame falls upon
Couldn't care less about what's going on

In recessionland
In a place where the worst is the best you can hope for
Recessionland
In a place everyday is the same as the last one

When people's lives are "a price worth paying"
Well I've heard that it's helping economy grow
But all that it's doing is making it hell
For people's lives are worth more than money
There's no way of knowing if worse things are coming
And the people whose shoulders the blame falls upon
Bathe in the sunshine as the rain tumbles on

In recessionland
In a place where the worst is the best you can hope for
Recessionland
In a place everyday is the same as the last one
Recessionland
In a place where lies and deception are common
Recessionland
In a place where the people will suffer too often
