Mister Greed

© 2015 Mark Cote

who am I
they call me mister greed
and over time
you'll fall in love with me
when what you have
what you have
is not enough
come and drink from my silver cup

they call me mister greed

and even though
even though I own it all
you'll try to run but only crawl
Jupiter she smiles at you
get too close and she'll pull you through

Yeah they call me mister greed

(instrumental)

don't you know
it's really all a game
I own the board, the pieces
but play it just the same

and the taste
and the taste
is so honey sweet
the lion seems so tame

yeah they call me
yeah tehy call me mister greed
