    Story Behind the Song
    When we were on a 99-city tour of the USA a few tours ago (after many years in Europe) we were surprised to see how many Walmarts, K-marts, Toys-R-Us, etc etc etc littered the landscape. So, "Big Gulp" in hand, we wrote this satire.

    Lyrics
    Greed: what you get what you get is a mean green ride
    on a pink mink carpet with a genie beside
    Greed: you fly so high over slums that you own
    as the genie checks the market on your cellular phone
    Greed: now you're in a silk suit in a Mickey Mouse tie
    on the 99th floor, there's a tear in your eye
    Greed: there's a tear in your eye cause the Deutschmark
    dropped and the bonds beat you up like an L.A. cop




    Building things we don't need/Selling things we don't need
    It's greed, greed, greed - we're in the money


    Greed: the middle-class man is a thing of the past
    try to own a small business: it's a laugh
    They'll shut you down, it isn't fair, it isn't fair
    Greed: the money gets funneled to the rich through the
    Walmart, Kmart, Toys-r-us, Coca Cola, Walt Disney
    Warner Brothers, Panasonic, Pepsi Cola, Burger King,
    bla, bla, bla, Taco Bell
    McD-- McDon--- McD-d-d
    I can't say it, it's too profane
    Got a corporate work plan tailor-made for you
    It's called Indentured Servitude - slavery


    Building things we don't need/Selling things we don't need
    It's greed, greed, greed - we're in the money




    Greed: what you get what you get is a mean green ride
    on a pink mink carpet with a genie beside
    Greed: it's a time of confusion like the French Revolution
    will it bend, will it break?
    "Let them eat cake!"
    Greed, greed, greed, greed...
