Those that have just want more
They’re too scared to end up poor

They think that money secures eternity
But they’ll still die just like you and me

Don't think you'll live for evermore
It doesn’t matter if you’re rich or poor

So share your wealth your life wont last
You’re going to die like those who’ve past

As your wealth grows the risks do to
The more you have the more they want you

They'll rob and mug at the end of a knife
If you save your wealth you'll lose your life.

The hungry and the needy the homeless on the street
Spare a thought for them you rich whenever your paths meet

You've got too much for just yourself, so Spread a bit around
Before your life expires and you end up underground.
