Hi Vis Liz

She wakes up
No day off today
Must pay her way
Cost of living's high and going up
Feeling subdued
Can’t afford food
Eats one meal a day out of a cup
Envelopes stack up
Eyes to the floor
Tries to ignore
Home is damp, she’s royally fed up
Sits on her throne
Opens her phone
Tells the world she’s close to giving up
She is
Hi Vis Liz
Working night and day
In order to live
Hi Vis Liz
Nobody sees her
Struggling to live
Motor car pulls up
Carriage awaits
Thank God for mates
The pair share the cost of filling up
Works overtime
Not by design
Wonders when things will start to pick up
Wages don’t add up
Seeks out a loan
Lets out a groan
They don’t give enough to back her up
Panic sets in
Bills up again
There’s no wriggle room, all out of luck
She is
Hi Vis Liz
Working night and day
In order to live
Hi Vis Liz
Nobody sees her
Struggling to live
She goes to queue up
Snakes round the block
Time to take stock
Everything is going belly-up
On the breadline
Second in line
Asks for meals that don’t need heating up
Body can’t warm up
Sits in the dark
She’s no monarch
Bailiffs call and tell her to pay up
Brushes her teeth
Missing a crown
So much for talk of levelling up
