Default Greed!

I have decided that, from now on, whenever someone mentions GREED, I will do a shot...

May the Lord have mercy on my soul... And my Liver...

Ooooh, can I play? Found this little gem with a DDG search for lyrics containing the word "greed". (That's one, BTW)

American Greed by Shaggy_d_thesavage

American Greed American Greed, I can't stop
American Greed American Green, I can't stop
American Greed Maerican Greed, put it in the bag and I'm gon' sit here and own it
American Greed American Greed, I can't stop
American Greed American Green, I can't stop
American Greed Maerican Greed, put it in the bag and I'm gon' sit here and own it
I guess it's my time ima shine grab the pen and pimp some lines
Yeah I do this out of love also here to collect some dimes
Collect, count it, stack it up then count it again
Spend so much time thinkin about money must be my only friend
Since the start from the first thought to the first sin
Find out it has no boundaries when it comes to getting some ends
Damned to hell like the beginning and end
Portray a justification doing wrong instead of makin amends
Benjamin plus his friends poker play all in
Gamble with your life tryin win putting up dividends
Only thing in sight is money come and go
Lately feel like more leaving me than I'm wanting to hold
The red rivers cause shivers when it's too much I bleed
Warm sensation delivers with the money I need
I lead from the way I think composition black ink
The pearl I'm jack sparrow riding my dream even if it seem like

American Greed American Greed, I can't stop
American Greed American Green, I can't stop
American Greed Maerican Greed, put it in the bag and I'm gon' sit here and own it
American Greed American Greed, I can't stop
American Greed American Green, I can't stop
American Greed Maerican Greed, put it in the bag and I'm gon' sit here and own it

Out in the open with the waving ocean
Still in motion
With the notion mixed treasures a mixed emotion
No way to measure times of pleasure that caused a commotion
Settle the pressure pause while the gasses form up a potion
An explosion if thoughts deep enough could cause erosion
You've been chosen I, may be exposin sides
Make you feel gross inside why, I impose on the things you hide
Buried deep hoping it don't leak Jekyll and hyde
Retrieve the potion from where it resides alter-ego arise
Same pair of eyes self induced disguise
Hit a heist surprise let the money stack high, collection peak of tide
Time to decide accept or deny it addin to lies
Open the cave stepped in sly won Aladdins prize
Diamond in the rough in need of a buff
Iron out the scuff knead it, no longer tough
The only fear it may not be enough, why

American Greed American Greed, I can't stop
American Greed American Green, I can't stop
American Greed Maerican Greed, put it in the bag and I'm gon' sit here and own it
American Greed American Greed, I can't stop
American Greed American Green, I can't stop
American Greed Maerican Greed, put it in the bag and I'm gon' sit here and own it


American Greed Lyrics

(I thought the video was just plain weird, others may love it, but I thought you'd appreciate the lyrics.)

By my count, that's 32 times, which should take care of the best part of 1.5 liters of your favorite libation. Bottoms up!

Go for it.

May I suggest Woodford Reserve.

For the rest of the topic at hand. . ."Unrestrained greed is not only bad morals, it's bad economics."

(Now, before somebody gets all up in it and starts calling me a commie pinko or whatever, that quote deserves a good look and some deeper thought. That's because "unrestrained greed" shows up throughout human nature, no matter what the the socio-economic status. "Unrestrained greed" gets around. . .and it's not always about money.)

Bottoms Up!

Boomer
