Greed
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.
Well, take a look around
And tell me what you see
We are consuming everything
And I must confess that I fall
Oh, isn't this the story of us all?
Falsely advertised
Into believing that we need
This stuff in our lives
'Cause what we got is what we need
And everything else is only greed
It's greener on the other side
Oh, why can't we be satisfied
Oh whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
And I've seen some with little
And they seemed like
They were doing just fine to me
And I've seen some with a lot
And they don't seem like
They ever want to stop
Falsely advertised
Into believing that we need
This stuff in our lives
'Cause what we got is what we need
And everything else is only greed
It's greener on the other side
Oh, why can't we be satisfied
Oh whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
'Cause what we got is what we need
And everything else is only greed
It's greener on the other side
Oh, why can't we be satisfied
Oh whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
