	Story Behind the Song The chorus and first verse were written by Mel Alexander. They don't need any explaining. Verse two was written by Ken about how Northrop Electronics would tell designers in the early 80's that there was enough work til "2000". Right after that, the lay-offs started. It is a common ploy of companies to keep employees from jumping ship when before it sinks. Verse three...well everyone knows a leech or two. You know, the people who always think the world owes them a living. It was recorded in the Underground. Preacher flew in from Dallas to do the vocals and everyone laid their sweetening afterwards. Lyrics THAT'S WHY WE ALL HAVE THE BLUES Our president says "Go Slow" Representatives say "It's gonna be alright" But they ain't hurtin' for nuthin' And their moneys not gettin' real tight Chorus: Conciousness of what is lacking That's why we all have the blues You know it hurts me so bad to know The little man always lose My company says "Work is plenty" And we shouldn't no more But soon as things get a little tight It's me they show the door CHORUS I got a friend who's always "needy" There ain't nuthin' he won't take But I had enough of that song I ain't fattening no more frogs for snakes
