The Desire Of Poverty - G.B.H.

I’ve been down park lane and it stinks like any other street

And I don’t want to go to where you find life is cheap

The beggars all want to be loved just like anyone

But I won’t buy you drugs and carry the misery on

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty

The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty

You got the logo labels but you got no food to eat

If they gave you a million dollars you’d blow it in a week

The world owes you a living or so you think

You drag your children down leave them teetering on the brink

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty

The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty

The desire of want, the desire for won’t, the desire of poverty

The desire to need, the desire of greed, the desire of poverty

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty

The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty

We’re all in the gutter but some of us are looking up

Born with a silver spoon but you drink from a plastic cup

The tacky icons you worship, they 'ain't worth a thing

You’ve set your sights too low, you can’t see they pain it brings

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty

The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty

The desire of want, the desire for won’t, the desire of poverty

The desire to need, the desire of greed, the desire of poverty
