These are some of the lyrics, along with the full video, of a song I came across today: Ka-Ching, by Shania Twain. Rather befitting I feel.
We live in a greedy little world–
That teaches every little boy and girl
To earn as much as they can possibly–
Then turn around and
Spend it foolishly
We’ve created us a credit card mess
We spend the money we don’t possess
Our religion is to go and blow it all
So its shopping every sunday at the mall
All we ever want is more
A lot more than we had before
So take me to the nearest store
When youre broke go and get a loan
Take out another mortgage on your home
Consolidate so you can afford
To go and spend some more when
You get bored
All we ever want is more
A lot more than we had before
So take me to the nearest store
