MUSIC FOR SALE

We get expensive bills when we see the doctor
Insurance covers most of the cost
Every month we pay high premiums
Those who can't afford to pay go without medical care

Health's a business
Patients are paychecks
When we get sick
Health care is a need
They know we'll pay for treatment
We're exploited by corporate greed

Insurance companies deny claims to increase profits
Hospitals charge inflated prices for medical treatment
Drug makers make huge profits from the medicine we need
Our health is their business, making money is their priority

Health's a business
Patients are paychecks
When we get sick
Health care is a need
They know we'll pay for treatment
We're exploited by corporate greed

In the year twenty twenty four
Americans spent over five trillion on health care
Four hundred sixty seven billion on prescription drugs
Americans owed over two hundred twenty billion in medical debt

[2 bars of music]

In twenty twenty five
four major health care companies
Made over fifty billion in combined profits
Americans got poorer, corporations got richer

Health's a business
Patients are paychecks
When we get sick
Health care is a need
They know we'll pay for treatment
We're exploited by corporate greed
