A Piece of the Pie |
| Like us all, you want the very best of life |
| A car, a house, a neighborhood that’s nice |
| With flowers and trees and lots of little kids around |
| Where public schools aren’t breeding grounds for vice |
| You say you’re working harder than you ever have |
| You say you got two jobs, and so’s your wife |
| Living in the richest country in the world |
| Wouldn’t you think you’d have a better life? |
| If you lived in Norway |
| You’d be fine right now |
| Get sick there |
| You make the doctor wait |
| If you lived in Belgium |
| You could mediate |
| Hey knock it off! |
| And the French fries are great |
| Hey! |
| Jesus Christ, it stinks here high and low! |
| The rich are getting richer — I should know |
| While we’re going up, you’re going down |
| And no one gives a shit but Jackson Browne |
| Jackson Browne |
| Jackson |
| Jackson |
| There’s a famous saying someone famous said |
| «As General Motors go, so go we all!» |
| Johnny Cougar’s singing, It’s their country now |
| He’ll be singing for Toyota by the fall |
| That’s not true |
| John’s a patriot! |
| He’s not like you |
| He’s a- |
| Jesus Christ, it stinks here low and high! |
| Some get rich, and others just get by |
| Bono’s off in Africa, he’s never around |
| Country turns its lonely eyes to who? |
| Jackson Browne |
| Jackson Browne |
| Jackson Browne |
| A piece of the pie |
| That’s all we’re asking for |
| A piece of the pie |
