Forty dollar salads
Take the money
its made of green
no need for water
it'll burn you clean
food in the blessing box
blistering scream
orphans and widows
take your money
holding out their hands
takers taking
cash my farm check subsidy
still who picks that lettuce
greed is greed
while you have a cocktail
in the Aruba sands
find no one there to climb the apple tree
oh……..now you drop your glass
its made of green
no need for water
it'll burn you clean
food in the blessing box
blistering scream
orphans and widows
take your money
holding out their hands
takers taking
cash my farm check subsidy
still who picks that lettuce
greed is greed
while you have a cocktail
in the Aruba sands
find no one there to climb the apple tree
oh……..now you drop your glass

Chasing Green
Chasing Green
Done chasing green hoping it frees me
Focusing on living in the second
As you learn that time is more precious than
A bank account given to a grave
Traveling on a time chart setting goals that will be to suffering like a drop in the bucket
Money sits in misery surrounded by sycophantic bitches
Far away but in this world we live in
On a paddy field the climate water is rising
Young girl goes back to show her family she did her part
Daddy knows it’s not enough but he...

You Can't Insure Death
So what! Big deal! A CEO dies
Too bad killer didn't biggie the fries
Insurance to boot
There's no surprise
Executive privilege
Often relies
In shareholder's name
Your claims denies
So policy holder
Delivered surprise
Good example to follow?
Perhaps time to rise?
Your aim is a message
To heads of big I.s
