I live in a jingle jangle jungle
|
If you ain't got it you can't be
|
Fightin' over crumbs
|
Wait till payday comes
|
Gettin' green ink thumbs
|
From countin'
|
While it's mountin'
|
In this jingle jangle jungle I call home.
|
|
You live in a jingle jangle jungle
|
If you can't earn it you ain't free
|
Where a life is spent
|
Tryin' to meet the rent
|
Payin' back the cent
|
You borrow
|
Some tomorrow
|
In this jingle jangle jungle you call home.
|
|
We live in a jingle jangle jungle
|
You're only worth what you can buy
|
So keep on workin' hard
|
To keep your own back yard
|
Teach your kids that God
|
Ain't fiction
|
Contradiction
|
In this jingle jangle jungle you call home.
|
|
I live in a jingle jangle jungle
|
If it don't jingle it's gonna fold
|
All the things you own
|
Are only here on loan
|
It's by bread alone
|
You're livin'
|
Call this livin'
|
In this jingle jangle jungle we call home.
|
|
I live in a jingle jangle jungle
|
Where people die to make some green
|
Turnin' men to boys
|
Makin' new war toys
|
Dancin' to the noise
|
Of ticker
|
Can't get much sicker
|
In this jingle jangle jungle we can home.
