The baby’s sick
I think he’s gonna die
So I call his dad and ask him if he’ll come by
Says “I’ll think about it” but I know that that’s a lie
So I watch the baby choke on the bottle while I cry
And I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
My man
He ain’t no good
But he’s the only man I have
I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
I once knew a girl who would paint on her tears
And sing in a voice that you didn’t hear
One day
Her face was buried in the sand
The good ones leave but the bad ones stick around
And I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
My friends
They all are gone
But they’re the only friends I have
I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
And the man said to God
“Why must I live in pain?”
And God said to the man
“You must bear the weight of my name”
The man
He ran to his wife
And she said “Baby
You’ll be okay”
But they didn’t know that God would come for her
The very next day
And I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
My good days
They are gone
But they’re the only days I have
I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
I’m not a greedy woman
But greed is all I have
In the darkness of my mind, I find a spark of light
Bubbling up, so cute and bright, chasing away the night
A happy tune in minor key, a smile upon my face
Embracing shadows playfully, in this quirky happy space
Bubbly and cute, my heart takes flight
Dancing in the dark, feeling so light
Sweet melodies in the shadows we weave
A happy song, for the dark to believe
Giggles echo in the gloom, like fireflies in the mist
Soft whispers of a hopeful bloom, a feeling we can’t resist
Embracing sadness hand in hand, turning it into art
A juxtaposition so grand, a happy song from the heart
Bubbly and cute, my heart takes flight
Dancing in the dark, feeling so light
Sweet melodies in the shadows we weave
A happy song, for the dark to believe
Let’s embrace the contrast, find joy in the pain
Let’s dance in the shadows, let love be our refrain
Bubbly and cute, my heart takes flight
Dancing in the dark, feeling so light
Sweet melodies in the shadows we weave
A happy song, for the dark to believe
So let’s sing in the darkness, let’s dance in the night
With bubbly and cute, we’ll make everything right
A happy song for the dark, a light in the shade
Bubbling up, never to fade
You control the courtite, give us welcome on this rique rule, here it is
I know you understand, there’s no function of madness you don’t have
I’d go abroad
Okay, but where is it now?
I’m telling you I don’t have a zira sign, but I’ve got a tarpaulin, I can’t smell it everywhere
I know you understand, there’s no zira sign, but I’ve got a tarp, I can’t smell it everywhere
I know you understand, there’s no zira sign, but I’ve got a tarp, I can’t feel it everywhere
It’s nothing to say
There was never time
But you tell me you like the irons of it, but they think I’m gone
Rule, there I have no honor, but I have no weight because my name is Athene
I know I have no honor, but I have no weight because my name is Athene
It’s nothing to say
There’s no need to hurt me
I know you understand, there’s no zira sign, but I’ve got a tarpaulin, I can’t feel it everywhere
Here we go!
Drip drop
Rain won’t stop
My umbrella’s all I got
Walking down the wet
Wet streets
I’m feeling a little incomplete
Grey clouds swallowed up the sun
But I won’t let it get me undone
I’m dancing in the pouring rain
Gonna wash away all my pain
Rainy days
They won’t bring me down
I’ll dance and sing
I’ll turn it all around
Rainy days
They can’t dampen my heart
I’ll keep shining
Even when the rain starts
