Woah, (might get to like that song btw) but scream poverty then namedrop items like "iPod's shuffle", pull the other one.... What's an Ipod? I'm still having to "Struggle" to not listen to a £5 256Mb player from nigh on 5 years back, and I'm From the Sony Walkman generation lol.

I'm not impoverished, I'm poor, there's a difference - my basic needs are met, with some luxuries. This was significantly less the case when I was a kid, but I've (thankfully) found myself in better circumstances now. I have a three or four year old iPod Classic 80GB MP3 player that I bought with the money I earned at a job I had during the summer break from college a few years back. :3

I had a walkman, too, seriously. And the old, clunky CD players. ..okay, more than one of the old, clunky CD players, because other kids in high school kept stealing mine. xD bastards!
