I'm leaving the Wat. To Buddhism no longer loyal.
|
I'm breaking my heart, as my compassion to the third world
|
turned to greed.
|
Bye bye, real McCoy, no ideals as if I was royal.
|
Now, I'm a material boy.
|
There's nothing in this world I don't think I need.
|
|
Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping.
|
There'll always be new stuff to buy
|
and I'll expand my needs somehow.
|
|
I bought an iMac and mouse, a phone to go with my new spirit.
|
Next step might be a house, six bedrooms and a pool just for me.
|
I will live like a Tsar, the beggars chant won't hear it.
|
I'll have a boat, new TV and car.
|
And in my mouth a fat Cuban cigar.
|
|
Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping.
|
There'll always be new stuff to buy
|
and I'll expand my needs somehow.
|
I'll expand my needs somehow I swear.
