G.B.H. - The Desire Of Poverty Lyrics

I've been down park lane and it stinks like any other street
And I don't want to go to where you find life is cheap
The beggars all want to be loved just like anyone
But I won't buy you drugs and carry the misery on

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty
The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty

You got the logo labels but you got no food to eat
If they gave you a million dollars you'd blow it in a week
The world owes you a living or so you think
You drag your children down leave them teetering on the brink

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty
The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty
The desire of want, the desire for won't, the desire of poverty
The desire to need, the desire of greed, the desire of poverty

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty
The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty

We're all in the gutter but some of us are looking up
Born with a silver spoon but you drink from a plastic cup
The tacky icons you worship, they 'ain't worth a thing
You've set your sights too low, you can't see they pain it brings

The desire of now, no desire to know how, the desire of poverty
The desire for new, the desires of a few, the desire of poverty
The desire of want, the desire for won't, the desire of poverty
The desire to need, the desire of greed, the desire of poverty
