about

Maybe a person shouldn't say everything that comes to mind...but i do anyway. ;)

lyrics

When the killing is over
and the war comes to an end
We'll find a reason
to start one up again

Ya can't change that with love or money
or a folk song, friend
Cause it's the oldest and our
favorite sin

Cause every human-being wants what
all the other ones they've got
and if we can't have our own
we'll just take yours

Since way back at the beginning of time
war has been fought over food and wine
women, oil, land, money,
everything that shines

And we always have a good excuse,
religion, our political views,
'bringin our freedom to you,
whether or not you mind,

Every human-being wants what
all the other ones they've got
and if we can't have our own
we'll just take yours

Being content, that's the cure
but it'll never, ever endure
cause every generation,
they just want more

la-dee-da-da-da
la-da-da-da....

you put your money in
and your morals out
take the company car
scream and you shout
make fun of your friends for their failure
that's what it's about

la-dee-da-da-da
la-da-da-da....

If you think that guy you voted for
is immune to greed you're a fool for sure
cause amassing a fortune and honesty
just don't mix

It's the age old game of bait and switch
appeal to the poor to get elected
and then sell your vote to the elite
makes you rich

Cause every human-being wants what
all the other ones they've got
and if we can't have our own
we'll just take yours

Being content, that's the cure
but it'll never, ever endure
cause every generation,
every state and nation,
every politician,
every singer/songwriter, folk musician,
every suicide-bomber and family physician,
ever out-of-work actress in a compromising position
everybody you know
they all want more.

(and i do too).
