Must Have It All

Greedy men can’t be satisfied
And they’ve done damage as they’ve tried
To own everything
Their hearts must truly sting
When with all their wealth they have died

Yes,it is so stupid. They can't take it with them to the grave. So why be so obsessed with it especially with one foot in the grave and hoarding it like a miser!!!
