Title: First World Problems
First world problems
Like paying the bills and the rent
When some people are homeless
Without help from the state, be content!
So, Starbucks got your order wrong
And daddy won't buy you a car
But it looks like you'll pass your media degree
One day you'll be a star!
So, your WiFi went down for an hour
And as you washed your shower went cold
Please don't tell me you're starving!
How could you be so selfishly bold?
Corked white wine for a white whiner
Politically incorrect, but some truth
Shouldn't it be Developed World Problems?
'What you can say,' changes for the youth
But that's another First World Problem!
