Greg Hetson - How Much Is Enough? lyrics

[Verse 1] Tell me can the hateful chain be broken? Production and consumption define our hollow lives Avarice has led us across the ocean Toward a land that's better, much more bountiful and wide [Chorus] When will mankind finally come to realize His surfeit has become his demise? How much is enough to k** yourself? That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away [Verse 2] Tell me is there anything so sure? Rapacity, tenacity, capacity for more! Like a dog that feeds until he suffers The infirmity of man is brought on by his selfish cure [Chorus] When will mankind finally come to realize His surfeit has become his demise? How much is enough to k** yourself? That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away
