Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

Want it
You can have it
Come and take it
I don’t need it
Power and possessions
Never quiet your obsessions

Outside, we search for something
Rhy. fig 3a:
Inside, we still have nothing

People deep in trouble
Let their money run for double

Outside, they search for something
Rhy. fig 3b:
Inside, they still have nothing
It never ends

Rhy. fig 4a & 4b:
There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even if I could
And even if I would
It never goes away
Rhy. fig 5:

Rhy. fig 2a & 2b:
Heartless rich and greedy
Watch the churches rape the needy

Rhy. fig 3a:
While we pray for salvation
Rhy. fig 3b:
Preachers yield to temptation
It never ends

Rhy. fig 4a & 4b:
There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even if I could
And even if I would
It never goes away

Rhy. fig 4a & 4b:
There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even if I could
And even if I would
It never goes away
Rhy. fig 5:

Rhy. fig 6a & 6b:
Rhy. fig 7:

Rhy. fig 8a & 8b:
Blinded believers and doomsday deceivers
Are driving you out of your head
Look in the mirror, the answer is near
Though your sanity hangs by a thread

Rhy. fig 4a & 4b:
There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even I could
And even I would
It never goes away

Rhy. fig 4a & 4b:
There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even if I could
And even if I would
It never goes away
