Rich people don't give a damn.
Rich people won't lend a hand.
Rich people can't understand
why the homeless don't go home.
Rich people don't care about.
Rich people don't live without.
Rich people can't figure out
why the hungry don't buy food.

Rich people got problems of their own to worry bout.
They got things to see and folks to do.
Rich people got more important things to think about
They ain't got time for me or you.

Rich people say their every need is paramount.
They got stocks to buy and lives to sell.
Rich people think that they're
the only ones in the world that count.
They're better than you... or can't you tell?

Rich people don't want to share.
Rich people don't mind despair.
Rich people just couldn't care
why the needy are in need.
Rich people always criticize.
Rich people think they're so wise.
Rich people don't realize
why the jobless don't have jobs.

Rich people say they know what
it s like to have really cried.
"Life can be so dull when you have it all."
Rich people need new exciting things
to keep them occupied.
We could line them up against the wall...

Rich people won't understand.
Rich people won't lend a hand.
Rich people don't give a damn
why the poor don't have a life.
