Greedy Lyrics

"We interrupt this program to bring you a special news bulletin
At 10:29 this evening, three inmates from a state asylum for the criminally insane successfully made their escape after slaying five guards and hurtling the 20 foot barbed-wire wall that surrounds the institution."


"Do not, repeat, do not, on any account, attempt to apprehend these men on your own
They are armed and extremely dangerous."

Well, I got ten years or maybe even more
But hell, I didn't hang around to see

Over barbed wire fences and crawling through the trenches
I tunneled like a human submarine

Well good God, Hollywood take me to the top
I wouldn't ever ever let you down

'Cause now I got the big plan to have the world in my hands
And it's beginning in this evil town

I'm singing, ooooh!

Ooooh!

Because I'm greedy!
Yeah, I'm greedy!
I'm very greedy!
Yeah, I'm greedy!
Gotta feed the greed beast. Selling my soul
And when I'm cashin' it, flashin' it I'm the man in control
Of a nation built on overcompensation and greed
(we love it)
The "give it to me" generation's just what I need

Because I'm greedy!
Yeah, I'm greedy!
I'm very greedy!
Yeah, I'm greedy!

Let's have some fun now
The party's gettin' started
Come on now everybody
Leave your troubles behind

Let's have some fun now
The party's never stoppin'
With my mind on my money
When your money's all mine

Give it to me
(repeat x4)
