This is a kind of poem
A poem that you sing
Talking bout the mind-set
That we’re all partner in…
Buy yourself a house
Buy yourself a fence
Fencing out the pain
You know that it makes sense
Focussing your life
To make financial gain
Harnessing the strife
I’m Abel to be Cain
I think you’ve got the pattern
I think you’ve sussed me out
It’s a pretty catchy tune
But what’s this all about?
Buy yourself a house
Buy yourself a dream
Buy yourself a life
This life ain’t what it seems
Buy yourself that body
That you think that you need
Buy someone else’s love
And by that love be freed
We gotta change this mind-set
That’s burning up the earth
I for one just can’t let
Abundance become dearth
It’s time to get to work
We have the information
Don’t let the world shirk
Our duty of salvation.
Make yourself the tools
That we are going to need
To deconstruct this mindset
Build love instead of greed
