Power fortune and fame |
|
Only a delusion inside your brain |
|
But those who got it all |
|
Fuckin' piss me off, they got a lot of balls |
|
To sit there and complain |
|
That affluence is a tremendous strain |
|
Use some common sense |
|
Take nothing for granted, not a fucking cent |
|
A word to the wise |
|
You should realize |
|
If you don't count your blessings |
|
You're in for a surprise |
|
That you got it so hard |
|
But life dealt you all the cards |
|
You better count your blessings |
|
You better let down your guard |
|
A word to the wise, when will you realize |
|
If you don't count your blessings, you're in for a surprise |
|
The roles will be reversed, and you won't be the first |
|
To wish he counted his blessings |
|
Substantial amounts |
|
Of their money lies in Swiss bank accounts |
|
And more in stocks and bonds |
|
They should consider if it were gone |
|
Just what the hell they'd do |
|
They might have to work to pay for their food |
|
Like every one of us |
|
They'll count their blessings without a fuss |
|
Power fortune and fame |
|
Only a delusion inside your brain |
|
But those who got it all |
|
Fuckin' piss me off they got a lot of balls |
|
To sit there and complain |
|
That affluence is a tremendous strain |
|
Use some common sense |
|
Take nothing for granted, not a fucking cent |
