Greed raises its ugly head
All around good hearts see red
Except the soul whose heart has bled
And yearns, yearns for high times sped

Yet, why can’t it see when looking at me?
That I only hope for a heart that’s free
Why can’t we give another day?
To souls in despair who've lost their way

But Greed it knows, come what may
Is unable to give of life’s ripe displays
Instead it wants to covet them
To keep the beat and fill the bin

Oh Greed, Oh Greed when you’re done
Please come back to earth
Release the tension, widen your girth
And maybe then new life will birth
