Gimme What You Got - Don Henley

Baby picks off your plate-yours looks better
And she throws hers on the floor
Here in the home of the brave
And the land of the free
The first word that baby learns is more
So youre out there floating like a big puffy cloud
With the pool and the charcoal
And the kids and the wife
Til the reruns of your dreams are interrupted
And you step out into life
And its still gimme gimme what you got
I said gimme gimme what you got
Gimme gimme what you got
Now its take and take and takeover takeover
Its all take and never give
All these trumped up towers
Theyre just golden showers
Where are people supposed to live
You can arm yourself alarm yourself
But theres nowhere you can run
Cause a man with a briefcase
Can still more money
Than any man with a gun
Said gimme gimme what you got
You got the price of admission
You dont have to ask permission
To take somethin from another man
You cross a lawyer with the godfather baby
Make you an offer that you cant understand
From main street to wall street to washington
From men to women to men
Its a nation of noses pressed up against the glass
Theyve seen it on the tv
And they want it pretty fast
You spend your whole life
Just pilin it up there
You got stack and stacks and stacks
Then gabriel comes and taps you on the shoulder
But you dont see no hearses with luggage racks
(I want it I want it)
