Greed:

For  You & You & You

How many hundreds Thousands Millions Billions Of dollars Does it really need? Your filthy greed How many lies How many thieves How many innocent lives How much "terror" Does it really need? Your dispicable greed How much taller That shallow tower How much deeper The clandestine creeper How much more illusionary power Does it really need Your fetid greed More More More More equals little or none No sense of loyalty To fellow creature or noble country Wrapped in your flag-colored shirt The fist/bible thumping patriot The backstabbing trickery Oh the irony You'd sell it all Truth be known In an instance For that extra dirty penny What else does it need That odious low-life Your insatiable greed What else does it need?
