Description
Wikigreedia © … .I coined new word for an old condition. “Wiki” is a Hawaiian word that generally means quick or fast. Practitioners of this behavior can often be seen ‘climbing and gathering’ with great determination in the machinery of life and often act as if they will ‘leave nothing behind’ when their life is over. The sometimes adopt the ideal of “love things—use people” instead of “using things and loving people.”
Lyrics
Wall Street Waltz Copyright © 2011 C. W. Eddy Wall Street magicians--- move with such skill One year it’s windmills… next it’s “drill baby drill.” The market goes up and down--- almost at will With the puppets they’re playin’… on Capital Hill. Could there really be puppets …....on Capital Hill? Chorus: Climb and gather--- gather and climb Work like your gonna leave nothing behind. But when the scorecard is read When we run outta time Looks like your pile of ashes---is bigger than mine Seems like your pile of ashes-- is bigger than mine. The whole world is watchin.. they put in their time And shovel their money – to your bottom line Maybe we’re desperate….. maybe outta our mind Cause we’re eatin’ the bread—that our grandkids will grind Yes we’re eatin’ the bread---- that our grandkids will grind. Chorus: Climb and gather …. gather and climb Work like your gonna leave nothing behind. But when the scorecard is read When we run outta time Looks like your pile of ashes—is bigger than mine Seems like your pile, of ashes--- is bigger than mine. The big shots on Wall Street ain’t nothing new They got ‘em in London and Switzerland too. But Wall Street and my street seem worlds apart Like a stockbrokers Lexus and an old shopping cart Like an ‘oil’ man from Texas.. or the clerk at Wal-Mart Chorus Climb and gather …. gather and climb Work like your gonna leave nothing behind. But when the scorecard is read When we run outta time Looks like your pile of ashes—is bigger than mine Seems like your pile, of ashes--- is bigger than mine. ( Don’t fear the ashes—fear the Father of time)
