Gimme What You Got |
| Baby picks off your plate-yours looks better |
| And she throws hers on the floor |
| Here, in the home of the brave |
| And the land of the free |
| The first word that baby learns is «more» |
| So you’re out there floating like a big, puffy cloud |
| With the pool and the charcoal |
| And the kids and the wife |
| 'til the reruns of your dreams are interrupted |
| And you step out into life |
| And it’s still gimme, gimme what you got |
| I said gimme, gimme what you got |
| (i want it, i want it) |
| Gimme, gimme what you got |
| Now it’s take and take and takeover, takeover |
| It’s all take and never give |
| All these trumped up towers |
| They’re just golden showers |
| Where are people supposed to live? |
| You can arm yourself, alarm yourself |
| But there’s nowhere you can run |
| 'cause a man with a briefcase |
| Can still more money |
| Than any man with a gun |
