No Time for the Roses (Wall Street trilogy #3)

(C) We're rushing through life
to get what we (G7) need
We're told by the god-screen
Our (C) soul it will feed
It's thoroughly packaged
(F) for mass appeal
And if (C) you don't have one (G7) you ain't for (C) real

Well we're over produced
and we're (G7) misunderstood
No time for the roses
or a (C) walk in the wood
Talk to a neighbor
(F) See the night sky
Or (C) ask the big question
(G7) Why this, oh (C) why?

Attitude we're told
is (G7) all that it takes
Kick ass, come first
and (C) don't make mistakes
The world is shrinking
Not (F) room for us all
And (C) only the winners
Es (G7) cape from the (C) fall

Well we're over produced
and we're (G7) misunderstood
No time for the roses
or a (C) walk in the wood
Talk to a neighbor
(F) See the night sky
Or (C) ask the big question
(G7) Why this, oh (C) why?

The capitalist system
It (G7) works for awhile
It raises expectations
and (C) creates it's own style
But I think it is over
It will (F) no longer do
(C) Further exploitation
Is (G7) bad for me and (C) you.

Well we're over produced
and we're (G7) misunderstood
No time for the roses
or a (C) walk in the wood
Talk to a neighbor
(F) See the night sky
Or (C) ask the big question
(G7) Why this, oh (C) why?
