Saluting with misty eyes

Business suits and cash a million miles away
A secret of this trash
Never gonna change their ways
Crime seems to pay
Million dollar makers taking everything we earn
Million Dollar makers
Destroying everything we've learned

Causing all this chaos with their media hype
Keeping all this greed inside
Ripping our world apart
Times are gonna roll
Million dollar makers
Taking everything we've learned
Million dollar makers destroying everything we earn

It's time we come to our senses
Fight them their battles their way
Cause all the greedy politicians
Making children starve everyday
Times must change
Million dollar makers taking everything we earn
Million dollar makers
Destroying everything we've learned

The time will come once in your life
When you're going to see
It's time to be free
The mind will become extinct
With it's money, power and greed
Pray for peace


Imagine all the People living life in peace...
John Lennon

I'm not sure where you're going with this. I do think we need to have less greed in the world. We should take care of each other - your signature line (from John Lennon's 'Imagine') is my idea of the perfect world..because we LIVE as one. I'm gonna go listen to that song now...thank you!

To be honest, I don't know where I was actually headed with this...I finally had enough of dealing with Enron, and WorldCom and What's-his-butt Anderson and Martha Stewart, and, Blah-blah-blah... I found this in one of my notebooks today, and figured I'd put it in here.
