Waste Not Want Not

[Verse 1]

Take, take, take, takin' what you don't need

You're get, get, gettin' what you don't need

Stand back, take a look and take heed

All the children in God's kingdom bleed

See the networks of concrete and steel

They've no mystery, but what they reveal

Tells a story of a future that's void

Of the beauty and the majesty that life on Earth is meant to be

[Verse 2]

Talk, talk, talk, talk about the government

Not a word about political favour

Everything touched is my political choice

The life you take is your political voice

The sacred cow's come crashing to her knees

The golden harvest reaped without intelligence

There's no chance between the heavens and the seas

In a bloodbath, don't laugh, grab your piece of golden calf

[Chorus]

Waste not, want not, pick it up

Waste not, want not, pick it up

Waste not, want not, pick it up

Waste not, want not

[Verse 3]

Do unto others as you wish be done to you

There's a million lies 'round everything true

You slaughter when you feast, you disrespect the beast

Make our beds and lie there, take your share

[Chorus]

Waste not, want not, pick it up

Waste not, want not, pick it up

Waste not, want not, pick it up

Pick it up and eat it

[Outro]

Waste not, want not
