I have things
I have a lot
I have things
and want not

I have trinkets
Doodads
Splinkets
and furs

Please excuse me,
I don't think
Splinkets's a word

BUT I HAVE THEM
Oh, yes I do.
I have a lot.
What about you?

Greedy Greedy
You call me Greedy
Needy Needy
I call you Needy

You're also a social pariah
How's that, Jebediah?
That's not your name?
OH! The shame!
Good thing I have money
to clear my name.
And just enough to smother yours
O bother,
"Boo you *****."

I am in want of everything
In the need of nothing
What's that?
Oh yes!
Please, pass the stuffing.
