You always strive to get

What your eyes covet

No matter the price

No sleep until you’re satisfied

You work so hard

Like a slave in ancient times

And that’s exactly what you are

A slave of your own desires

What do you have

That can’t be taken from you

What do you have

That will stand the test of time

You steal and lie and cheat

To see your wealth increased

Still you lie down in vain

Sleep is always far away

The thief may come to steal

To rob you in the night

Your life it may end just tonight

The reaper will accept no bribe

What do you have

That can’t be taken from you

What do you have

That will stand the test of time
