| So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. |
| So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. |

| Now they say the Celtic Tiger in my hometown |
| Brings jewels and crowns, picks you up off the ground. |
| But the Celtic Tiger does two things: |
| It brings you good luck or it eats you up for supper. |
| It's the tale of two cities on the shamrock shore. |
| Please, sir, can I have some more? |
| If you hear the tiger roar, run for the door, |
| Cos if you are poor, you'll be eaten for sure, |
| And that's how I know the poor have more taste than the rich, |
| And that's how I know the poor have better taste than the rich. |
| |
I am your God, you see,
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
And you shall not have any
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more, more, more ." |
| Other god but me. |
| I am your God, you see. |
| And you shall not have any |
| Other god but me, |
| Any other god but me. |
| |
| The fastest-growing inflation rate in the world, |
| The cost of a run-down house is absurd. |
| This isn't any age for a low-income wage-- |
| Ask anyone who's locked in a cage. |
| A couple with kids can't afford a place to live, |
| Even if they have a good job. |
| We're being robbed by the builders and the fat-cat government. |
| A league of greed, and they don't even need for a thing. |
| It's a sin, |
| But it's the nature of the beast. |
| You'd better go and find a priest and confess, |
| Because your greed is gonna leave you soulless. |
| |
I am your God, you see,
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
| And you shall not have any |
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
| Other god but me. |
| I am your God, you see. |
| And you shall not have any |
| Other god but me, |
| Any other god but me. |
| |
| Where we gonna live? What we gonna do? |
| We'll have to move in with the woman in the shoe. |
| They're driving us onto the streets, |
| While the fat-cat government cheats, and always gets away with his crime. |
| A kid steals a jacket and does time. |
| Just look at the world around you. |
| Tell me why there is so much need? |
| Because of greed. |
| Because of greed. |
| |
| So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. |
| So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. |
| So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. |
| So greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. |
| I am your God, you see. |
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
| And you shall not have any |
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
| Other god but me. |
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
| I am your God, you see. |
| Hear the Celtic Tiger roar, "I want more." |
| And you shall not have any |
| Other god but me, |
| I am your God, you see. |
| And you shall not have any |
| Any other god but me. |
| Any other god but me. |
| Any other god but me. |
| Ah. |
