Immortal Rich

I ate a suicide breakfast and I still feel sick
 I've got a half life here and I'm stuck with it
 But I count my blessings and say my prayers
 Because half the world's hungry and most of it's scared
 And it's a cruel law, but the cat gets the cream
 Cash buys the diet fit for a king
 While the lion goes to the water-hole
 We must sit and wait
 But any day now we may scratch that itch
 And join the immortal rich
 They've got a drive-in Jesus to purge their sins
 Roll up to the gates of heaven and still get in
 Well, a big donation ain't gonna hurt
 And you get your name on the T.V. church
 Meanwhile down here we've lost our faith
 Look to the heavens and just see rain
 Can't meet the subscription on the pay-to-pray
 So we don't even watch
 But any day now we may scratch that itch
 And join the immortal rich
 And any day now we may make that switch
 And join the immortal rich
 Death by a thousand cuts
 Jack up the prices so they cost
 Just that much more than we can ever afford
 Clean up in the hospital
 Close down all the wards
 And it's a cruel law, but the cat gets the cream
 Cash buys the lifestyle fit for a king
 While the big cars ease into the fast lane
 We come to a stop
 But any day now we may scratch that itch
 And join the immortal rich
 And any day now we may find our pitch
 And join the immortal rich
 Any day now we may scratch that itch
 And join the immortal rich
 Any day now we may make that switch
 Arid join the immortal rich
