Selfish
(Hmmm)
(Hmmm)
(Hmmm)
Ashes to ashes
That's how it ends
You go from heartache to heartache
As you make amends
Just bigger and bigger
You take two steps back
You want something from nothing
And you're so exact
You think you're a rich man
Now you misbehave
You're not a free man running
Just a comfortable slave
You're so selfish
You've got more than you can use
But you still don't see
You're so selfish
And you're running out of room
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
Deeper and deeper
As you forge ahead
You go higher and higher
But, you've been misled, uh
Oh, harder and harder
Now you're grinding stone
Hey, faster, faster, faster
Until you're skin and bones
Too much ambition
Without relief
You know that ain't heaven
But it's what you teach
You're so selfish
You've got more than you can use
But you still don't see
You're so selfish
And you're running out of room
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
Who's got the answer?
Please, give me the cure
Oh, don't rush to judgment
Until you're sure
You're selfish
You've got more than you can use
But you still don't see
You're so selfish
And you're running out of room
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
So selfish
You've got more than, oh
You're so selfish
You've got more than you can use, yeah
You still don't see
You're so selfish
And you're running out of room, yeah
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
(Hmmm)
