lyrics

She came into my room and said
“You’re a woman of few things”
I looked her in the eyes right then
You know that really stings

Possessions shouldn’t matter much
In the eyes of Christ
Yet every day I spend my time
Accumulating mine

Creating and destroying
We’re all mini hindu gods
Environment can screw itself
It’s second to us slobs

Well I don’t have the answers
And I don’t have the time
I’ve got to get back to my desk
Pay for a roof that’s mine

I’ll leave that to the rich folks
They’ve got a conscience bad
To clean up all the garbage
Left behind by deadbeat dads

I’ve watched the 3rd world grow up
And now they’re just like us
Equal opportunity for accumulating stuff
Equal opportunity for accumulating stuff

How many plants and animals
Will we kill on our path
Until it’s barren like our souls
And there is no life left

She came into my room and said
“You’re a woman of few things”
I looked her in the eyes right then
You know that really stings.

She came into my room and said
“You’re a woman of few things”
I looked her in the eyes right then
You know that really stings.

She came into my room and said
“You’re a woman of few things”
I looked her in the eyes right then
You know that really stings.
