Description
It's really all about the greed that brought on the collapse of the banking/lending/mortgage system in the US. Capitalism may be the current system and it may work but capitalism should be able to work without being overly greedy.
Lyrics
Preacher man on the TV talking about my sound say's I can't go to heaven till I lay some money down. Politician he asks me "Hey Moses how you been" I said I didn't think you'd recognize me in my ragged jeans. That's the problem with the world today everybody got to get their way. Say they'd change if they could hey man some change could do you good. If you got it I want it If you got it I want it. Never mind about the poor black kid everybody got to get their kicks. Never mind what the rich man said got to be better days ahead. See the man in the welfare line thinking back to better times. Man in the suit says what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine. That's the problem with the world today. Everybody got to get their way. Never think about the consequence better start using some common sense. If you got it I want it. If you got it I want it. Trying to process it in my head a hundred thousand people dead. Do you believe what you just read. Remember what the wise man said. Don't matter what book you read. Don't matter what god you believe. You'll never get to reap what you sow till you plant that first seed. That's the problem with the world today. Everybody got to get their way. Say they'd change if they could hey man some change could do you good. If you got it I want it If you got it I want it.
