Greed

If you want to see the day that all of us are free and equal

if you want to stick around long enough for the sequel

you've got to understand that everybody's in the mix, cause that's just the way the universe ticks...

Once upon a time, long long ago

there was a man named greed who worshipped his dough.

He set out on a mission to divide and slay

and to feed his fat belly others had to pay.

he thought people were dumb and he treated them like scum,

but they watched every day how he was rolling in the hay,

they were envious like Oedipus,

almost delirious, he's totally oblivious, stylin' like Julius,

stearing all around in the explosive mix

until the devil opened up a new bag of tricks.

He said: Hold on to your dream world domination,

But keep an open eye on their frustration,

you've got to find a way to keep them moving in a rut

or the whole situation will bite you in the butt.

So control them with fear, let them drink a lot of beer

and tell them that the enemy is over here.

Sell them video games, let them call each other names

and remind them periodically that judgement day is near

trickle down a little sugar to have them bearly get by,

keep them all racist cause that's the way you stay high

Once upon a time long long ago

there was a man named greed who worshipped his dough.

He succeded in his mission to divide and slay,

but he lost his mind, oh what a price to pay.

If you want to see the day that all of us are free and equal

if you want to stick around long enough for the sequel

you've got to understand that everybody's in the mix, cause that's just the way the universe ticks...
