The lyrics to “Catch Me Now I’m Falling” is so appropriate these daze....
I remember, when you were down
And you needed a helping hand
I came to feed you but now that I need you
You won’t give me a second glance
Now I’m calling all citizens from all over the world
This is captain America calling
I bailed you out when you were down on your knees
So will you catch me now I’m falling
Help me now I’m calling you
Catch me now I’m falling
I’m in your hands, it’s up to you
Catch me now I’m falling
I remember when you were down
You would always come running to me
I never denied you and I would guide you
Through all of your difficulties
Now I’m calling all citizens from all over the world
This is captain America calling
I bailed you out when you were down on your knees
So will you catch me now I’m falling
Help me now I’m calling you
Catch me now I’m falling
I’m in your hands, it’s up to you
Catch me now I’m falling
When you were broke you would come to me
And I would always pull you round
Now I call your office on the telephone
And your secretary tells me that she’s sorry
But, you’ve gone out of town
This is captain America calling
This is captain America calling
Help me now I’m calling you
Catch me now I’m falling
I’m in your hands, it’s up to you
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
I stood by you through all of your depressions
And I lifted you when you were down
Now it’s your chance to do the same for me
I call your office and your secretary tells me
That you’ve gone out of town
This is captain America calling
This is captain America calling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
I was the one who always bailed you out
Of your depressions and your difficulties
I never thought that you would let me down
But the next time you’re in trouble better not come running to me
Now I’m calling all citizens from all over the world
This is captain America calling
I bailed you out when you were down on your knees
So will you catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
Catch me now I’m falling
You really got me with that one!
The whole “Low Budget” album is more relevant today than it was when it came out in the Carter years. And it was darn relevant then!
Cheers,

It was appropriate then and it’s appropriate now. As well as Low Budget.
So true. It's 1978 all over again. "Superman," "Gallon of Gas," and "Low Budget" are as appropriate today as they were then.
