About the song
Well off folk like us react to tragedies (like the Tsunami) by donating money to lift our guilt.
Lyrics
Through the cracks in my window
I see the subject unaware.
As I entertain my freedom
She turns my gaze into a stare.
She'll never know how to fly.
And she'll never learn how to drive.
Some of us have made it.
And others have it made.
The sex and green that fuels us.
In death we'll be the same.
But he'll never know any fame.
And he'll never learn his own name.
Petroleum will make us rich.
Petroleum will make us rich.
I see the subject unaware.
As I entertain my freedom
She turns my gaze into a stare.
She'll never know how to fly.
And she'll never learn how to drive.
Some of us have made it.
And others have it made.
The sex and green that fuels us.
In death we'll be the same.
But he'll never know any fame.
And he'll never learn his own name.
Petroleum will make us rich.
Petroleum will make us rich.
