We live in a greedy little world
That teaches every little boy and girl
To earn as much as they can possibly
Then turn around and spend it foolishly
We've created a sacred economy
We spend the money that we don't possess
Our religion is to grow and blow it all
So we're shopping every Sunday at the mall
All we ever want is more
A lot more than we have before
So take me to the nearest store
Can you hear it ring?
It makes you wanna sing
It's such a beautiful thing
It's such a beautiful thing
Cause yeah
Lots of diamond rings
The happiness it brings
You live like a king
With lots of money and things
When you're broke, go and get a loan
Take out another mortgage on your home
Consolidate so you can afford
To go and spend some more when you get bored
All we ever want is more
And it's more
A lot more than we have before
So take me to the nearest store
Can you hear it ring?
It makes you wanna sing
It's such a beautiful thing
Cause yeah
Lots of diamond rings
The happiness it brings
You live like a king
Well, lots of money and things, let's swing.
Dig deeper in your pocket.
Come on, I know you got it.
Dig deeper in your wallet.
All we ever want is more, a lot more than we had before, so take me to the nearest store.
Can you hear it ring?
It makes you want to sing.
It's such a beautiful thing.
But yeah, lots of diamond rings, the happiness it brings.
You live like a king, with lots of money and things.
Can you hear it ring?
It makes you want to sing.
You live like a king, with lots of money and things.
Ka-ching!
