"Society"

Oh, it's a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won't be free

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

When you want more than you have
You think you need...
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
Because when you have more than you think
You need more space

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

There's those thinking, more-or-less, less is more
But if less is more, how you keeping score?
Means for every point you make, your level drops
Kinda like you're starting from the top
You can't do that...

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

Society, have mercy on me
Hope you're not angry if I disagree...
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

We have a greed with which we have agreed You think you have to want more than you need Until you have it all you won't be free
Society, you're a crazy breed I hope you're not lonely without me
When you want more than you have You think you need And when you think more than you want Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place 'Cause when you have more than you think You need more space
Society, you're a crazy breed I hope you're not lonely without me Society, crazy and deep I hope you're not lonely without me
There's those thinking more or less, less is more But if less is more how you're keeping score? Means for every point you make your level drops Kinda like it's starting from the top, you can't do that
Society, you're a crazy breed I hope you're not lonely without me Society, crazy and deep I hope you're not lonely without me
Society, have mercy on me I hope you're not angry if I disagree Society, crazy and deep I hope you're not lonely without me
