What I want
Never got
What I have
flaunt a lot
never going to fall behind
wow I gotta spend a pot

seeing what they’ve just bought
buying with need or not
this is making me so cool
man are they ever going to droll

What I want
Never got
What I have
flaunt a lot
never going to fall behind
wow I gotta spend a pot

looking at the bills to pay
how’d it ever get this way
never could keep up with them
trying till the bitter end

What I want
Never got
What I have
flaunt a lot
never going to fall behind
wow I gotta spend a pot

never could keep up with them
bidding for the latest trend
doesn’t matter need or not
they have something I aint bought

What I want
Never got
What I have
flaunt a lot
never going to fall behind
wow I gotta spend a pot

never could pay all the bills
keeping up expensive thrills
all I did was pay and pay
guess that’s Im broke today
The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key

    Greed. It makes for an interesting poem. There is plenty of it around for sure.
