Poorest Man

Judging by commercials, I must be the poorest man Underfed, and undersexed, and underdressed But that's ok, 'cause corporate America Is looking out for my best interests...

But I don't need a bigger bank account I'm happy just to "just get by" You can't finance a song and dance That's all I'm leaving when I die

Judging by my neighbors, I must be the only one Who thinks that two-inch grass is unnatural at best Soaking up the water wanted by a thirsty world To make my house look better than the rest...

But I don't need a better house than you And I don't need a greener lawn I don't need to own a bigger SUV I don't even need to own this song

Judging by religion, I should be in hell by now For all the crazy things that I believe I believe that Jesus tells the rich young man To "give up all you have and follow me..."

So I don't need to join a mega-church Or by more junk in a Christian store Don't need a bible priced by copyright 'Cause me and Jesus are happy poor

Yeah, me and Jesus, we're happy poor...
