Lyrics for What Are We Craving

What are we craving? Why are we cold? We are the prosperous The children of gold The hunger of living Brings madness in time I see a sad, poor man Who smiles for a dime His home is tomorrow His hunger is life He never competes In the gold seeker strike (?) (?) What is this pleasure? That lives in his eyes What are we craving? Hungry and cold The coins fill our pockets With wonders untold
