"Unconsicous Want To Need" (chords)
Tyler McLaughlin
plenty years ago
many people died
they were search'n for gold
some died filthy rich
but many more died with the itch
that never once got scratched
and left them cold
but to think for just a minute
that them rich ones had it good
that they were more better off
or that they were more understood
would be an error on our part
because them fools didn't have no heart
and in the end they'd deal with robin hood
oh there is a thing
and it makes some people sing
and it makes some people scream
but it turns people mean
it loves to feed
and it's not afraid to bleed
no it doesn't have no shame
but it does have a name
and it's called greed
it's an unconscious want to need
awe to take more than you get
and then throw a hissy fit
awe greed
just the other day
29 men died
they were digg'n for coal
in a west virginia mine
they left their families far behind
but them executives they're not out
in the cold
but to think just for a minute
that them big wigs got it made
because they got their bonus checks
and their mercedes in the shade
fade out 10 more years
and see them living in their fears
because they too
will get paid
oh there is a thing
and it makes some people sing
and it makes some people scream
but it turns people mean
it loves to feed
and it's not afraid to bleed
no it doesn't have no shame
but it does have a name
and it's called greed
it's an unconscious want to need
awe to take more than you get
and then throw a hissy fit
awe greed
greed will make you blind
it'll make itself so hard to find
it'll rust your heart and it will
burn up your mind
it don't care about out life
no it will kill it don't give a damn
it feeds on fear and on foreign land
it'll stop at nothing it loves
to push and shove
but there's one thing that will defeat it
it's called pure love
and there is a thing
and it makes some people sing
and it makes some people scream
but it turns people mean
it loves to feed
and it ain't afraid to bleed
no it doesn't have no shame
but it does have a name
