Defy Greed
Pay no heed
To your greed
Do it once
Just to give your greatness
A chance.
Once and then once more
As never before
Defy the greed
Pay it no heed.
Here and there
A small sacrifice
Would suffice
Youre learning to share.
Youre learning to defy greed
Learning the worth of a good deed
Youve it to take the lead
To free the world from greed.

think for things
greed you think of things
alas things degenerate
greed you think less of others
alas you tinker with things
greed you think less with sense
alas you kill your neighbour
gree you abhor with your thoughts
alas you make cultures perish
greed you are embodiment of evil
alas unsatiable are are your wants

Greed Is...
Greed is a place in which you can't escape,
Greed is the base of distrust and mistake;
It swallows you whole, and you can never get out
no matter how much you claw your way about;
Greed is a place in which you can't escape.
Greed is the place in which you can't escape,
When it takes you in there's no way to leave
All you can do is sit there and greave,
You will see Greed's true colors when
one friend betrays the others;
That is Greed a place in which you can't escape.

Greed is Good
Greed is good! they say
Some say Greed is great!
Will they say that when the masses
Are bashing down their gate?
Will they still pray to their god Greed
When they find that its too late?
All the starving children
They dont think greed is good
They would rather have each day
A sufficiency of food
All the freezing homeless
How great is greed to those?
A bit of tin to shelter in
Would please them (I suppose)
What good is greed to anyone
When it is served with hate?
Id rather have a shred of humanity
Sitting on my plate
