1
Greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy
2
So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy
3
Now they saw the Celtic Tiger in my home town
4
Brings jewels and crowns, picks you up off the ground
5
But the Celtic Tiger does two things
6
It brings you good luck or it eats you up for its supper
7
It's the tale of the two cities on the shamrock shore
8
Please Sir can I have some more
9
Cos if you are poor you'll be eaten for sure
10
And that's how I know the poor have more taste than the rich
11
And that's how I know the poor have more taste than the rich
12
Hear the Celtic Tiger roar - I want more
13
Hear the Celtic Tiger roar - I want more, more, more
14
The fastest growing inflation rate in the world,
15
the cost of a run down house is absurd
16
This isn't any age for a low income wage
17
Ask anyone who's locked in a cage
18
A couple with kids can't afford a place to live
19
Even if they have a good job
20
We're bring robbed by the builders and the fat cat government
21
A league of greed and they don't even need for a thing
22
It's a sin
23
But it's the nature of the beast
24
You'd better go and find a priest and confess
25
Because your greed is gonna leave you soulless
26
Where we gonna live, what we gonna do
27
We'll have to move in with the woman in the shoe
28
They're driving us onto the streets
29
While the fat cat in government cheats, and always
30
gets away with his crime
31
A kid steals a jacket and does time
32
Just look at the world around you
33
Tell why is there so much need
34
Because of greed
35
So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy
