The Jones’ Complex
The Jones’ Complex
Use what you got.
You think it’s not
what you want.
But what you have
is really quite a lot.
You’d like to go
again to the store.
It’s late; door’s closed.
Why do you need more?
You make a mess
with what you think
is just a little less.
Will more, in your mind,
make you best?
You gotta get a big
problem off your chest.
Deal with reality,
just like the rest of
us who live and breathe.
Money don’t fall from
the sky or grow on trees.
You got to be free
from this disease
called the Jones’ Complex
Got to have more money
more cars, more sex,
a bigger house or stereo.
There’s not limit to
how far it will go.
There’s one thing I know.
Use what you got.
You think it’s not
what you want.
But what you have
is really quite a lot.
