The video was produced by me – Vicki Hollett. The Philadelphia street scenes were shot in October 2012 and the stressed businessman part was played by Jay – rather well I thought – perhaps a little too well. 🙂 Enjoy!

Here are the lyrics:

Hey! Hey!
Busy roads, heavy loads.
Cutting costs, running at a loss.
The foreign trusts, selling the very soul.
Can’t conceal, the deficit is real,
Scraping for a meal, fighting for the best deal.
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart.
We all know, talk is cheap,
But the debt is deep,
Can’t get on your feet
So forced to retreat. Hey!
Left to contemplate,
No room to formulate,
We need to innovate and stimulate,
No time to procrastinate.
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart.
We all know, talk is cheap,
But the debt is deep,
Can’t get on your feet,
So forced to retreat. Hey!
Left to contemplate,
No room to formulate,
We need to innovate and stimulate,
No time to procrastinate.
Busy roads, heavy loads.
Cutting costs, running at a loss.
The foreign trusts, selling the very soul.
Can’t conceal, the deficit is real,
Scraping for a meal, fighting for the best deal.
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart.
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart,
Can’t tell the days apart.
