1.    I want to be rich and I want lots of money,

    I don’t care about clever, I don’t care about funny.

                               D7                                    G

    I want loads of clothes and fuck loads of diamonds.

                             Gm                                     D

    I heard people die while they are trying to find them.

    ‘cuz everyone knows that’s how you get famous,

                            D7                                G

    I’ll look at the sun and I’ll look in the mirror,

    it’s all about fast cars cussing each other.

    But it doesn’t matter ‘cause I’m packing plastic,

                                         Gm                             D

    and that’s what makes my life so fucking fantastic.

4. And I am a weapon of massive consumption,

                             Gm                                                D

    and it’s not my fault, it’s how I’m programmed to function.

                            D7                                G

    I’ll look at the sun and I’ll look in the mirror,

    ‘cause I’m killing them all on my own little mission.

    Now, I’m not a saint, but I’m not a sinner,
