Material Boy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Im leaving the wat. to Buddism no longer loyal
im breaking my heart,as my compassion to the third world
turned to greed
bye bye real mccoy,no ideal as if i was royal
now im a material boy
theres nothing in this world i dont think i need
now im shopping im not stopping
there will always be new stuff to buy
and i will expand my needs somehow i swear
i bought a new imac and mouse,a phone to go with
my new spirit
next step might be a house,six bedrooms and a pool
just for me
i will live like tsar,the beggars chant wont hear it
i'll have boat,new t.v and car
and in mouth a fat cuban cigar
now im shopping im not stopping
there will always be new stuff to buy
and i'll expand my needs somehow
i'll expand my needs somehow i swear
