We race through life
Just to get ahead –
And we give little thought
Of the misery we spread!
Just think of the things we need!
A new car! A new house!
(Got to keep up with the Jones)
We have to please the spouse!
Working ourselves to an early grave,
And we just can’t get by –
I guess we thought we’d live forever
There is always time to die!
Lord be merciful upon us, please –
Greed is an unforgivable disease!
