TV Smith - Immortal Rich lyrics

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 d**h 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
