If you are filthy rich,

Please go and take a shower.

It will clean the filth from your body,

But not the filth for power.

You will still desire money.

The lust for it is too great.

There’s no time to think of the poor.

Let someone else worry about their fate.

Just accumulate the good things in life.

Perhaps if you’re in the mood,

You might feel a little generous

And give the less fortunate scraps of food.
