Wanting More

All the men who squash the poor are 
Wanting more
As they drive their staff and wages out the door
Then they come home to their mansions
And they think about expansions
We all know their greed is wanting, wanting more

All the criminals are wanting
Wanting more
As they force the shop assistant to the floor
When the price of drugs has risen
And they know their home is prison
Then their robberies are wanting, wanting more
