A time of greed, a timeless seed
That grows in hearts of man
Hate lies deep in open wounds
Happiness should be caressed,
not depressed by the sorrow
Happiness should be caressed,
not depressed by the sorrow
The fat cats rule, while us dogs drool,
and we bark at each move they make.
They think that we're small,
But I can tell you that our eyes
are more open than theirs
Happiness should be caressed,
not depressed by the sorrow
Happiness should be caressed,
not depressed by the sorrow
And every time I want my heart to beat,
then somebody goes and breaks it
And every time I want to save my money,
the taxman wants to claim it
And every time I want to kick my heels
and run right out of here
Someone throws a net over
me and I cannot disappear
not depressed by the sorrow
