Greed Is the Creed
Marley's in the tower, man, he's cookin' up the books Trying to burn the paper trail of everything you took “The accountant made me do it!” you moan and you wail As you're cashing someone's pension check to post your bail You're only as bad as the contempt you breed It's a brave new world and greed is the creed
Ebenezer Scrooge went down to kill some ducks The little wooden cowboy wrung his hands and cursed his luck You see the numbers never lie, this is a National disgrace Can you take the heat off, Eb, maybe shoot Cratchet in the face? You'll have time to sober up while you watch him bleed It's a brave new world and greed is the creed
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com It makes you want to get lost and never be found It makes you want to quit the human race If the gravity of our situation didn't keep me on the ground I'd take off like a rocket into space
You say you talk to Jesus through a crack in the door But what he's saying now don't sound like what he said before He once said love your enemy, not hit him 'fore he hits you But he ain't been the same since his eyes turned blue For your sake I hope he'll judge you on your words and not your deeds It's a brave new world and greed is the creed
